Wanted to journal a small step forward. This sounds so silly... but I want to note it here.
STBX rang this morning to ask if he could pick up the kids from school. He hasn't done this in yonks.
When I answered the phone, he said "Hi It's [name]. How are you?"
This is the first time I think he's asked in 19 months. I nearly dropped the phone.
I would count this as a baby step that follows on from almost 4 months of very minimal contact on my part - just in case anyone is interested in time lines!
If this is a marathon, I'm doing it on hands and knees and pulling a tractor.
