Thanks rH, AJ, and J. You're encouragement really helps. I'm really grateful to have a place I can get things out and be honest.
rH that was the sweetest image of you and your H hugging. I'm wondering what has to be going through his head every time H sees me now, as it's pretty hard to not notice. S8&6 were pretty concerned when they saw that happening. They're really sensitive to me being upset, so I'm always careful to be really strong around them. It turned into a big family hug. They wanted to know what was wrong, and I said, "It's okay. Daddy fixed it." It has been such a long time since we had a family moment like that.
