All the remaining interactions with STBX today have been only about the kids and I'm completely ok with that. I could use a couple of easy breezy interactions after this afternoon's phone call.
STBX dropped off the kids at my house before her work shift. I was so excited to see the kids. My joy was overflowing and I'm sure STBX could tell. As I was walking around her car to pick up S1, she complimented my new haircut and my new shoes. I responded with a nonchalant "Thanks." I then made sure she got a chance to give both kids a goodnight kiss. However, I didn't want to seem like I was waiting around for a hug so I started to walk away and simply gave STBX a smile, a wave, and wished her a good night.
STBX then called from work to check on kids like she normally does. I quickly put D4 on speakerphone. When D4 finished, I told STBX that D4 and I were having a slumber party. I wished her a good night. STBX made it a point to say "thank you very much." I'm not sure what she was so thankful for but whatever.
Just a few upbeat and no nonsense interactions to help keep a LBS focused and put this afternoon in the rearview mirror.
