Just wanted to note some usually normal behavior from xH;

He thanked me via text yesterday and acknowledged that I did him a favor when the kids came home early on Monday.

Has called the kids in the afternoon to say hi.... never done that.

Has been texting and asking me about school for next year since he knows I went to a meeting about 1st grade. He has never participated in any of this school stuff since he left. He went to 1 school event this year out over 30ish.

who knows why, but it is nice.

Also he wanted to come by this morning and drop off the sleeping bags that we left in his car. I replied that is wasn't necessary but he could come over any day and walk kids to school even if is wasnt his day. (There has never been a time when he has not been invited over to see or help with the kids). This time he said thank you.

It would be great if I actually had someone to discuss parenting issues.
