Have I any hope...?

[bashy]

Arrived to my former home this morning to collect my daughter for horse riding lesson. WAW was her courteous self of recent times - asking how I was, was I looking forward to a holiday I have booked with a friend for this weekend, would I like a cup of tea, among other things.
I was positive in my responses, ensured she asked questions and started conversations and I didn't interrupt but looked at her when she was talking to me, listening intently.
It was actually nice for me not to interrupt and give my opinions on her worries about work. I just made sure I listened.
Fingers crossed I am proving to her very slowly that I am changing for myself and that she likes these changes.
