I am so glad you had some fun with the kids. This kind of GAL are really enjoyable for everyone.
Our lives are different and yet so similar. I have so much fun with my kids, and when we go out for some adventure, it is super good.
Yes, your wife is very lost and she wants some good of both worlds, what is really impossible at least for now. She can't even see what pain she is bringing to her own kids. She has a long way ahead to figure it out what she wants or don't.
Today, besides the cry out loud about not wanting their dad back, the kids were talking about RD. They said that they feel I am not much in love with their dad and it is really good.
Then they asked me if I want to date again, and I said that eventually once my life is resolved and I am a single woman again that I would probably at least think about. Then they said that "Oh mom, then are you going to visit Ireland? If they come here, maybe we need to build an extension on the house to fit everyone", and they went on and on talking about how it would be living with 4 other kids in the same house.
I said that you have cats too. Then they start saying that they need to start training our dog to stop running after the cats.
Then they asked me, what happen if this Irish RD is a beer drinker, fat with a huge belly and talk funny english ? They start asking me if you have red hair, if it's long, if you have a huge bear, if you have many tattoos, like in your arms, body.
I told them that I don't know anything, that we just talk on this board and that everything is confidential. RD, we had about an hour talking and having fun with this today. Even S15 was trying some Irish dance to impress your kids. Of course, he almost fell on his bud trying the Irish folk. It was very funny to see him trying.
He also tough about that if you all come to visit, that he will need some new PJs because he wouldn't walk around in his underwear like he does now, since you have two girls.
They were talking about the girls and saying that it would be torture if they are like "Mom", always worry about her hair, her nails, her nose, her appearance, pink shorts, pink shirt, and the killing I need time to put makeup. Oh, with three girls in a house they think they would go crazy and end up in a mental hospital with a nerve break down.
I laughed so much today. And even when you read the sad part of the day, you can be sure that you were the happy part of our day. I hope you don't feel offended that I talk with the boys about you and your family. It just feels that we are in a similar situation, "left behind with kids".
