Ok, question for the vets. Can I get some examples of temp checking?

I heard my son was sick at the weekend and I did text W to check. Since then I have had 2 relatively long text messages and 2 long emails. In some ways like my 'old' W would have done. Very rambling information about the kids. What she does, what she has bought them, and with a little info about her life thrown in. There have been no real questions so I haven't responded other than to say I was out the evening she wanted to call.

It was like her rambling thoughts, things that she would have done with me always, looking for verbal appreciation of a pat on the back for he things she was doing. Today she was asking me if everything was ok and that she understood that the daycare closes early. Fees like I'm supposed to be needing or asking for her help. One email she said how she had got clothes for the kids and did I need/want some as she was happy to share... Like I can't get clothes for my kids when needed. I almost have that feeling that I am supposed to need her but since I haven't asked her for anything, is she questioning it?

I still living my life as without her and look after my kids without her help, I will continue to do so...
