hrm, I think T gave you a good idea...drive separately in case things don't work out and you can get away when you are ready to go. Me, personally, I wouldn't go because I would feel like something was going on because they've not reached out to you in such a long time. I would be wondering why someone in the family hasn't contacted you and asked you to come over for the celebration...I don't know...I could be wrong, but I just don't think something is right w/this invitation. Again, I could be very wrong.
I would continue to think about the invitation for a bit, after all, you have several days in which something could occur, such as the new baby girl deciding it's time to come into the world and then you be w/your friend's children.
Yeah, he does have a lot to talk about, doesn't he? He's been very forthcoming about his family in the last few days. I have to wonder if he's making a lot of this up or if there have been discussions about you and your situation.
I can understand you being scared...the constant comments about talking and you don't know what he wants to talk about, etc. If he does finally sit down and have this "talk" w/you, listen, validate and remain positive, but he's got a lot of work to do in order to come back to you a healed and mature man. Hrm, pray on this matter. God will provide you w/the answers. I'm praying that the little one will come this Sunday/Monday so you will not have to make a decision about the "family" gala.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
