Huddy, yet again these are positive signs, but don't change what you are doing just for crumbs. I said before that there is a good chance your W could come around. I say that without wanting to give false hope.

Great she is friendlier, better dressed etc. That will make your interactions more pleasant.Enjoy that. Appreciate that. But don't read too much into it. When/if she wants back, you will know.

You can read the situation better than us. Just to be devil's advocate it is possible she has met someone, is happier and wants more kid free time.
I am not saying this is true but want you to not get carried away. You said it best when you said patience is the key. Time will tell.

Good luck mate.
