Here we go again....

[matw]

So last night we finally told our S9 and S10 that my W would be moving to an apartment in November. My S9 is pretty sensitive and started crying right away. About broke my heart. When my S10 was alone with me he started crying as well. I could tell this is hurting them both. My W and I decided to get them a cell phone they could share so that they are able to text/call each parent whenever they want. They were pretty excited about that and we told them if they can share the phone for a month and be responsible we would get them another one so they can each have one.

After we told them my sons just wanted to hang out with me. They came upstairs and helped me pack my gym bag for the next - I workout at 430am then shower and head to work. Then we went downstairs and watched some football. Both of them were very clingy and wanted to sit next to me and hold my hand. I love them so much and feel bad that were are doing this to them.

W called me this morning and felt it went really well. I told her that they were both extremely sad and will probably hit them in waves. She seemed annoyed that both our boys wanted to hang out with me and made the remark - Looks like they are worried about you. Seemed like an odd remark but maybe its true... I have always been extremely close to my sons and has even been a bit of an issue with my W because of that.

Anyways I am glad we told them and let them know what was going on.. I was sick of hiding it and they deserve to know. She is set to move Nov 10th into her apartment so we will have a few weeks to observe them and make sure they know that we both love them.
