I forget sometimes that I am only a month into this and it could potentially take years... That's one of the hard things to grasp. And doing things with the kids for us. I want to send her pics and tell her how great we are. I'm not tho. It's for me and te kids. I don't need to manipulate her with how we are. It really bothers me that she acts like the older 2 are not here. She asked how the boys were yesterday. And I believe she plans her drop off and pick up so she doesn't have to see older 2. I'm not sure but I am monitoring her actions. She has been a mom to them for over 1/2 their lives and she acts like they don't exist anymore. It troubles me deeply. She saw them the day she moved out and hasn't since or even brought up anything about them. It feels like she doesn't care and it angers me she is being so cold about it. Because they miss her too
I just have to be the parent they need. The stable one right now. The first time I detached I did it all wrong and know how to approach it. I just never thought I would have to go through it again
The person that you will spend the most time with in your life is yourself, so make yourself as interesting as possible.
