Quick update: Post session #2 went very well. We're still doing the activities, and it is helping very much so. I need to keep focusing on DBing to help her through her big transitions to the new job, moving home, and also maintaining a level of detachment for myself. The R is moving along nicely, and we are sharing much more than we ever have in the past.
S5 is cooling down some on his attention seeking and seems to be understanding better that mommy and daddy are going to be spending time with each other as well. Her and I have made it a mission to make time a couple times during the week and at least one big thing on the weekend to make as special S5 time.
THUMBS UP!!! What a wonderful update, Squiggy. Keep up the good work here, buddy. I love, love reading success stories like this.
