Yes, Snodderly, I was trying to imply that...to follow their lead...I had to do that today. W had another volunteer shift, and due to car issues with S1, me being on call and possibly having to go into work, and/or take S3's friend home, she decided to rollerblade to work. Now, the old T would have had issues with that, and said so (it's 3-4 miles) and, well, been over-protective...new T did still had issues, but kept his mouth shut...it's HER thing, I just offered to drive her in and drop her off, and pick her up, very non-pressuring, not like a "parent". Based on her demeanor, I think I just might have been being tested, but idk.
FY, yes purpose and meaning are a huge factor in this I believe, especially for my W, being "out-sourced" from her beloved job by just natural maturity in the kids.
UR, Thank you so much, that means a lot now that I know a wee bit about your journey...
W's rings still on, T still no asky no questions...lol, though he did move his ring from the jewelry box to out open on the dresser, I think W saw this morning when she came in to change (which is a "new" thing, less modesty, again), not sure though...
Quietly sitting, watching, listening, going about my life... T^2
