Sorry I forgot to add 1 more detail. Today for example we were both home all day. In the morning I got up and got dressed and she asked me where I was going and if I wanted to go out to breakfast with her and the kids. Which I said to the store and yes we can go when I get back. We went and all did have a good time.
When we got back, she sat in the living room watching TV and I went and was painting in another room. About 30 minutes went by with no interaction, then she called my name and asked me a question about something she saw at the store. I answered politely and then went back to doing what I was doing. About 10 minutes later she came and sat down at the dining room table right next to where I was painting and asked me for help with her homework.
I sat with her for a little while and then went back to painting but I was verbally helping her still.
So it almost seems like she is expecting me to follow her around or something and when I do the opposite she comes to me? Which I guess is a good thing? Is there anything I should do differently? Thank you so much again for your advice.
