I'm glad she was civil about the whole thing. It's sad when we are surprised by our WAS acting "civil" or "nice"...

He laughed and told me he and his wife planned upon taking full advantage of the baby sitting service offered.


Well done JS. Your son's a lucky man to have a dad like you.

You sound like you are in a good place JS. I dread signing my papers but at the same time.. I feel like it will be a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.

When it's time for you to date again, your heart will know. Until then.. enjoy the life you have built for yourself.
