My WAW - coming to terms with it all!

[WAW_SC]

So i spoke with my W the afternoon of her Bday and she thanked me for the presents in a sincere way.

I am glad I didnt call or ask her out to dinner. Man, when you think you should be doing something, sometimes do nothing!

We met up the next day at our S5 soccer game. She was in good spirits and we had a good chat after the game. I dropped her off home and then i went with the boys to get a mothers day present.

I dropped them back off, we chatted again and she asked me if I was going out that night.
I said yes, and she asked..."where are you going?" I told her i hadnt decided yet, but it would probably be in town somewhere.

She has not asked me or been interested in what I have been up to in months.Thats two weekends in a row where she has enquired as to what I got up to in the evenings.

It seems like everytime I come over, she is a little more relaxed with me, the anger is slowly fading, but i wont change what I am doing. I am being friendly, engaging and not sticking around longer than I have to. Consistency and patience.

The next afternoon I went around to pick the boys up for transition. IT was mothers day and she had spent the morning and lunch with her family and our sons. When I walked in she gave me an awesome "hello", her beautiful smile straight at me. It made my day.

She offered me a cup of tea!!

We had a great chat and she told me about her birthday, dinner with her parents and how mother's day lunch had gone. She was in a great mood and I was mirroring her great mood too. She thanked me for the flowers that I had left on behalf of the boys with a note " we love you mummy" for mothers day. I told her I had nothing to do with it...i was just the messenger for the boys. She gave me another great smile.

Then she thanked me for the card I made for her for mothers day. It was a photo collage of lots and lots of little pictures of our sons...like a mosaic all nicely arranged. I got my S-5 to write on the back of it...he has only just learnt to write. I must admit i was pretty proud of it.

she said "thanks for card...it was beautiful, it really was"

I told her again, i had nothing to do with it...that it was all the boys doing. She gave me a "yeah right" with another smile.

I hung around a little longer and then left with the boys.
It felt great....she had opened up just a little bit of her heart to me and while I am not expecting anything, it was about as good as it has been for a long long time.

Back to GAL and PMA.....
