Journaling:

So, just had a great day..

My son turns two today, and we had a great day, just tugged him and D5 in, and now relaxing on the couch, about to watch a movie.

So yesterday evening, WW came home, so she could be here when S woke this morning. Nothing wrong with that, she slept on the couch, and we had a good morning centered around giving S2 a great start to his birthday.

I made a fruit monkey for S2, so he had someting to hand out on his special day, and after opening presents and eating breakfast we took him to daycare.

I then took off for work, and worked my butt off so I could drive home early to pick up the kids, and just have a good relaxing afternoon, and play with them and S2s new toys.

WW arrived at the house after work, and we drove to a restaurant (she had asked if we could all eat together because of S2s birthday - I have learned so much from the episode with my own birthday, and I am a completely other place in my life now, so it was no big deal). The kids had a blast, and I would describe my state of mind as calm and relaxed, just enjoying seeing my kids being happy.

We drove home afterwards, and WW packed up and took off after having kissed the kids goodnight. I made lunchboxes for tomorrow, snuggled up with the kids and read them a story before tugging them in. It has been a good day.

So I had no expectations, therefore there was no reaction. I just really enjoyed the day because I saw how happy my kids were.

I did however get a good laugh in and here is why:

So basically 3 weeks ago, I had to go to a fitting at a nearby town for my new driver. This fitting was booked on the one day I also go to gymnastics with my kids, when WW has them. So on the day of the fitting, she asked me, if I or she would tug in the kids. I told her I had to be at the neighbor town shortly after, so she would have to do that. It was no problem

So fast forward 2 weeks, she has the kids again, and tuesday comes around. I go to gymnastic with the kids. She asks if I am gonna tug them in, however my friend invited me to go see a movie at the neighbor town, which I gladly accepted (GAL GAL GAL). So she would have to, since I had be in the neighbor town at 8 o'clock (no mention of what I am doing - not her business).

Then here is when it becomes rather funny - Yesterday when WW arrived to the house, I took off to the gym. When I came home at 22 o'clock I sent a snap to my buddies with a pop-up ice-cream and said "sooo worth the pain" . I then recieved a snap from WWs best friends boyfriend who happens to be a great mate of mine.. He said "who are you tapping in "neighbour town""??

I instantly knew, how he got the idea, and who told him... take a wild guess (lol). I didn't take the bait and didn't answer. Today at the restaurant, WW asked if it was okay if she came to the house and slept from thursday to friday because she couldn't stay at her moms for so long at a time, and she had no where to go...

so here I know I didn't do as I should...

right response: Im sorry to hear that, im sure you will figure it out...

my response: Yea thats fine, you can just take the kids from thursday instead then. <-- That was fine by her, and then... lol... she asked "are you gonna go to the neighbor town on thursday then??"

I just said: Thats a possibility.

I guess I saw an opportunity to get out of the house a day earlier (father of the year thought)... but yea, whatever, it was not trying to be a nice guy, it was, as written above to get some time for me - I guess thats also alright from time to time...


All in all, great day, I am happy, my kids are happy, and thats all that matters.
