I like the how's it hanging analogy! I agree when she is truly ready to deal with us then I can open up to her. That is hard part! I know my wife and I usually can tell when she is sincere and when she is just being polite. Last nite I could tell she was down and sounded sincere, and the same thing this morning. I know it give it time and have patience and don't over react. No one hates a "Sour Puss" so I will be happy and say great! And when the day comes she truly wants to know we can discuss it calmly!
