interesting day....
I was doing a bit of an errand this afternoon and received a little text from my S 12 (step)
I am in absolute awe....He is amazing me with all sorts of insight for his age.
I know its the little things that make us smile, but this was a big little thing!
Anyway...he wanted to know if we could chat and keep it between us....I was a bit apprehensive but seeing as how he has basically been shut out of my life for the past 8 months, I decided to risk it for a little bit.
He basically said all of his ” I miss and love you's” in the first few lines, still referring to me as dad, which I am so proud of, and actually very honored about.
Anyway, when it comes from the mouths of babes, I think you can pretty much bank on the authenticity of the information
Well…of course mom is still seeing that other guy, but she really loved that gift you sent her for mother’s day, and she actually is wearing the baseball jersey…he told me
He also let me know that there were several occasions when she was in deep thought about me and even got a bit depressed that I wasn’t around…could it be that the fog is about to lift?

I am taking it for what it is….for the most part…..its a connection…or at least the start of a connection.
I will have to move slow…stay detached….and continue to DB
But on the other had…I am freaking happy as hell!!!!!! smile
