Don't be surprised if you come home one day, and your H has hid all knives and scissors in the house! Lol- we know you would never do something like that.... or would you
Like Rick said, it DOES seem like y'all are moving in a positive direction, just do it S..L..O..W..L..Y.
It's good that H is responsive to your frustrations, instead of ignoring them completely. Yes, it is beyond frustrating how they can twist and manipulate conversations and actions to blame us- but we here in DB land are smart enough to know that it's their way of convincing themselves that they are right in their choice to leave... afterall, if they (God forbid) gave us a compliment or admitted that they were wrong in any capacity, then their perfect book of "I have every reason to be angry and leave this M" would go up in flames.
You've got a great head on your shoulders and you are a wonderful mom!
