How was your day? Thoughts of you and your son's man. Had a great day myself, which included my boy, hope you might say the same. I may even take him to the beach for pancakes in the morning!
CT1118,
I'm so happy to hear about you and your S getting to bond. There really is nothing like it. I have a new appreciation for my kids now that I am going through all of this stuff.
I had a great day with my S6. My W had to go into work until 12 pm yesterday but after she got home I took my S and I to get our haircuts. He was awesome and I think we both are looking pretty good with our new haircuts. After the haircuts I took him shopping for some things for him and then a quick bite to eat.
The only thing I'm not sure about yesterday is that my W and I watched football yesterday together. Our team was playing, but she never really watched much of the games in the past with me unless we were actually at the game. She would often go to our room and read a book or something because she would say she was too nervous to watch. Well yesterday we sat next to each other and she watched the whole game with me. It was kind of odd and nice at the same time. We didn't talk about our relationship or anything. We just talked about the game and maybe a little small talk about nothing really important. Then after the game I was flipping through the channels and saw a movie I liked and she sat and watched that with me too. Our sons were in the room with us playing on their tablets. It was almost like normal.
Then this morning I got up early and went to the driving range to work on my golf swing. When I got home my S6 was upset because he wanted us to buy him some game online and for the first time I can remember my W told him no and sent him to his room because he was throwing a fit. She was explaining that you need to work for you money and you can't just get whatever you want. After she was done she saw me staring at her and I must have had a weird expression on my face because she asked what was wrong. I told her nothing was wrong but I never thought I would hear her discipline our son about money (my W has never worried about money and always bought whatever she wanted). She gave him a lecture that I would have gave. She just gave a laugh and headed off to the gym. Before leaving she asked what NFL games were on today (which is even more unusual than her watching the college game yesterday with me).
