H was out of a special ointment for D2 and asked if he could have some of my stash. Of course I said.
I was in the middle of making brownies for my girls and for a potluck at school when he arrived (with d2/3).
He kept commenting on how good the house smelled, and how he use to get excited in the old days when I baked. He laughed and made small talk. The girls and I danced in the kitchen while waiting for the first batch to cool. I love dancing with them.
I noticed H was just staring and smiling, like he was in the moment too. We all enjoyed brownies, and I sent some home with him. I bake for my co workers all the time, and I can't wait to bake for d3's soccer team
A few hours later H text me saying that he loved me so much as the mother of his children. He says that quite often.
Either way, it was a treat having a suprise "family" moment. I wasn't nervous and wasn't thinking about the past at all. When he left I was pleased to find that I easily returned to the happy place I was in before he even text me. It gives me real hope that we will be able to leave the past where it belongs and focus on our girls together as friends.
It was also really nice to see him genuinly peaceful and happy. I really am happy for him.
