I decided to go take S for coffee and breakfast this morning - there are a million places to choose from but I felt like driving and went to a little organic market/restaurant a few miles down the road. I walk inside and guess who is sitting there with her sister? Yep - my W. S immediately sees her and says "momma!" - W's eyes lit up when she saw him.
I walked to their table and handed her the baby - she was thrilled and he was happy to see her as well. I walked to the counter and got two pastries and a cup of coffee and sat back down with them (w, her sister). We all just talked and enjoyed the morning. No R talk, no D talk....just playing with the baby and I caught up with her sister a little bit. To see S interact so happily with W made me smile - it so obvious that he loves her and vice versa. I really had forgotten that I missed their interactions so much.
It was a nice little coincidental meeting and everyone got along. Wife and her sister walked back to my car with S and me - W strapped him into his car seat and we were off.
I was initially nervous when I saw her there - but I have to say, it kind of made my morning. Don't want to get too happy about it, though.....still moving slowly.
