RSG, I am still here, still reading, have not had too much time for commenting like I used to. I'll be brief, you have a celebration day! Love to your son, mine turns 5 next Saturday. Also, being here with your w/our stuff at the same time, I am so proud of how well defined you are. Great work you friend.
- you self identified a question I was going to ask about the walls I interpreted, but you have a plan and it involves knowing what you want out of this. Exemplary.
- I think my jury is still out on the family picture. If it really was for your son, I get it. We all did one on his first day of school. We were not touching, but I was cool with it for him. I looked at it once to see if it came out blurry or not, sent her a copy, and that was last I looked at it. Also, I have no pics of her in my place that are not boxed or in a hard drive. My son asked for a picture of "you and mommy" to go in his room. I dug one out and obliged him. I'm not certain how I feel on it, but it made him happy and his room is his space.
- tattoos are the ultimate "for you" item. It could be bonding for you two, but I find it to be a very personal experience, if you want her in on that than she should know that her presence means something to you as well. She may already get that since she has a few. So just some food for thought. remember what I suggested about the MT Dew to drink while it's on, that overloaded sugar nightmare will keep your body in check when it is telling you to pass out.
