Breakfast this morning was great...all my girls, W included. We went to her favorite place and she ordered what she always orders...we had a little laugh about that because she always peruses the menu then orders the same thing. I gave her the neckless the kid's and I bought yesterday and she actually gave me a hug for it. She had on a new dress and I complimented her on it...she looked amazing, so pretty and cute. It took everything I had not to put my hand on her leg as she sat next to me. I stayed upbeat and positive and truly enjoyed myself. I have no expectations for anything I do now...for her or my kids, I'm just so happy to have the opportunity to be with them.

I think she appreciated the whole morning, I certainly hope so. As we left she initiated a quick hug and I kissed her head as I did. It could be nothing...but any hugs since S has been all me.
