unbidden - I was blessed to have the judge we had. After the first day of hearing, I told my lawyer that I wanted to shake the judge's hand so bad. He's sharp, alert and entertaining to watch/listen.
And to provide an answer to your statement: I found out an hour ago from my wife that she has chosen to move first thing tomorrow morning to SC. I'm sad that she chose this route, but well, read two paragraphs down...
Bond - Believe me, man...I'm trying to stop worrying about what my wife does. I appreciate the 2x4 an advice. I remember Karma going through something similar when his wife started acting erratically and moved out of state with their child, right? He pulled back, did his DB/DRing, set his boundaries up and eventually his wife slowly respected who he was again.
I guess I was expecting that after 2.5 years of separation would mend some wounds, but my wife's healing may be only just beginning. Perhaps the distance from our son and the space will be what she subconsciously need.
She'll be dropping our son off early tomorrow morning. It only honest for me to say that I will miss her a lot. I'm debating if I should chance it and give her a hug. After all, like our son, we'll also be transitioning from seeing each other everyday to not be seeing each other for 2.5-3 months at a time.
Anyway, I've been blessed to have so many of you prayer warriors, uh, prayer warrioring on our behalf. So I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Please keep praying for my wife in her journey and well-being, for our son in his growth and happiness, and for me to provide a loving, balanced and God-filled life for him.
