newcomer now receives mail in Hell

[bravo61]

On the GAL front my kids an I have:
Gone to a rollerderby match
Been exploring restaurants downtown
Been to a NBA game
I gave a profession of faith in church that turned into a small testimony-even apologized to my S for not being the example I should've been & told him how proud of him & how much I love him
Randomly drove to next state for candy for the kids
We are going to be "greeters" at church this Sun
D and I took candy (westerners no less) & flowers to a local retirement home
D and I passed out "candy for smiles" downtown

We've done so much fun stuff that I've had to assure a friend that yes, I do homework with the kids, they have chores, we read the bible and pray together, and still cuddle on the couch at night. All the mundane less glamorous everyday stuff.

And speaking of no scorecards, after the "I get a turn exchange" I took the kids to the mall for them to pick her out b day gifts.

I got her a card and I'm sending flowers (daisys). Her Grandmother used to send her b'day flowers (as if they came from her Grandfather) but since she died, XW figured it out & has missed them. It's cool cause I have no expectations for her even to acknowledge them. I'm doing it for me, because I want to, because it's the right thing.
