Thank you labug.
We did discuss how he never had time for his family. He was always working. Since the separation(I guess the lawyers said we are now separated and waiting on the divorce.) he has truly stepped up in regards to doing activities with the kids.
So proud of myself today. We had a couple of issues regarding the way he dresses my oldest. Dad's have no clue about fashion. Lol and in regards to the way and when he does her homework.
In the past and this is one of my biggest faults in the marriage. I ALWAYS ran to my mom and told her (Yes I was 30 when we got married and an only child - Working on not needing mothers approval in IC) Today it crossed my mind to call my mom but I did not. I prayed for a minute and then wrote him a text regarding these two issues. I am beginning to realize the only two people in the marriage or at this point discussions regarding children should be me and him. I was polite and respectful - One of my other issues that I needed to work on. He agreed on the clothing and disagreed on the homework. I told him I would speak to our daughter regarding the homework so him and I were on the same page and I went with his thoughts. It was something little I want it done in the afternoons after school, he wants it done in the mornings before school. Total 180 for me. In the past I would have 1st never brought it up after complaining to my parents about him. 2. If he gave a suggestion I would have been passive/aggressive and probably still did things my way no matter what he said.
I did tell him I understand that this is the best time of his life, but I am in the praying and figuring out how to move on with the next steps of my life.
He did comment back: "This is hardly the best time of my life"
