Glad to hear that things went well today for you, Smokey and daughter.
Remember to remind yourself to quit your stinkin' thinkin for the next time. Sometimes we tend to let our minds run wild at various scenarios and when the situation is much calmer in reality...then we tell ourselves, 'what a waste!'
I told him, in my opinion, doing that is the way to go and, within no time, he will be able to take her to lunch. He seemed angry/irritated when I said that, so I STFU.
This comment got my attention. You come across sounding like a "mother" who doesn't trust her son to do the right thing. You are telling him how to do the reconnection stuff with his own daughter. That comes fairly close to lecturing to me. Watch it, sweetie.
