So tonight at bedtime, S7 tells me that he worries about me a lot when he's at his mom's house. That a bad guy/burglar will take me away an that he won't able to save me... That I should know that he's always ready for combat, but hopes that Molly (the dog) will be enough... FS9 piped up at that point to try to reassure S7 that he's here now too to make sure things are safe.
I told him how brave I thought he was for telling mom how he feels. Also, I tried explaining to FS9 that this isn't exactly what S7 was talking about. I'm not sure he got it, but gave him a thank you nonetheless.
At least for the summer, I'll have him most nights. Except 2 nights every 2 weeks. Not a bad trade-off at the moment. I'd prefer something different, but it's not there yet.
