I know that I have posted to many regulars over the past week or so, but thought I should list some positives in my own sitch...
1. H has spent many evenings and weekend days here at home 2. H, kids and I did dinner out on one of his nights - at a local fast food joint when a portion of the proceeds go to our school (saw many other families we know as well as S5 teacher who knows H doesn't live at home) 3. H keeps referencing the future in conversations about the small things in life 4. I have kept up my pact of no R talks - as hard as it may be! 5. Still filling up his cup with his main LL - 6. S3 told him to pack up and come home last night and he said okay (of course, I don't think he heard what S3 said so not getting excited - but will explore it with him later without having an R talk - any ideas how I might do this? LOL!)
So, patience is key as always! As is your support, encouragement and ocassional 2x4!
