Previously (several weeks ago), my WAW has made it clear that she doesn't want me attending any of her family's functions. She thinks it would be awkward/uncomfortable. She even made mention that she will be bringing the OM to the annual X-mas party (on her family's side), which I've been attending for 18 years straight.

One of her cousins is hosting a birthday party for her young daughter this weekend. Last week, she made mention of this and said that she will be taking our two kids to this party (insinuating that I won't be coming).

Just a few minutes ago, I asked about this weekend's schedule/plans and noted the birthday party for her cousin's daughter.

She replies, "I'd like for you to come on Sunday, if you'd like to. We can grab dinner afterwards. Let me know."

I reply, "OK, sounds like a plan."

Progress? Maybe. Can't get too excited.
