I'm surprised your W went to talk to your mom. Kind of weird but oh well. I wouldn't think about it very much though.

This is just WW garbage IMO. Why does she need OM to "figure things out"?
Most of everything she told your mom is a steaming pile of horse...well, you know.

I do feel she is torn between giving up the awesome single life that allows her to do what she pleases and the stability and security of the lifestyle that she has in our MR.
Well you just told her how much you love her, she is able to talk to you when she needs to, come see the horse...I only say this to remind you that she hasn't given up much yet.

I figure that somewhere along the line, during the weekend, post sessions, or some other awakening, a change in her mindset would need to occur for things to swing back in my favor
I think your W has had moments like this. The real change is when she decides to continue working on things even when she doesn't feel like it - that's the hard part for a WS. When things are rosy, everyone is good. When S&%^ hits the fan, can you stand and fight or will you run? In this regard, the WS is no different than anyone else. We say our vows, but when push comes to shove, do we mean them?
I think you can show your love for her in ways other than sending a text out of the blue telling her you love her. I think you just go be a good dad, leave her be, and do the things that make you happy. That's love C.

It is not things that bother us, but the stories we tell ourselves about things.
