Retained a lawyer yesterday. Felt good to get that done. I bit of a relief.
I went for a run last night. Something I started doing a few weeks ago. I came home to find her crying and upset on the front porch. I asked what was wrong and she said our 11 year old got emotional again. I asked what he said and she explained he is upset he is leaving all his friends in the neighborhood. That sucked hearing. She said she feels terrible that she is the one causing his pain. I kept silent when she said that so the moment could sink in with her. Didn't reassure her that "he will be alright". We know thats not true. I sat and listened while she told me. I told her I felt bad for our son and that he's a really good kid.
Is this sinking in for her? I really don't put much faith in that anymore. Maybe just a brief moment of reality before she sinks back in. But it did hurt hearing because for the past few days I thought my son was doing better.
