Another step forward. It's funny how things come around full circle from the beginning. Last night my wife announced that she'd like to start taking voice lessons. There is a significance to this. I believe a big one. In the beginning of our counselling I was telling her that I supported her in anything she wanted to do. Knowing that she really liked singing and acting and knowing that I love to hear her sing I suggested she take voice lessons and get into some acting groups. It was blown off. Now she has come to me as if it's her idea. This is also important in that her previous ideas about things she wanted to do involved things that wouod make her financially independent from me. Not that there is a problem with that but the thinking process has changed for her a bit.
She seems to be ending this process and we're moving back to us, just a feeling. But she seems ashamed to do so. I will just keep my distance and not push.
She was very happy last night when I took our D's first boyfriend and "had a talk". Also very happy when I took a punk a$$ kid who came in and turned him around. I have a skill in that. The grandmother was ecstatic when the kid actually pulled up his pants (giving up the gangster style?) kid had spent some time in jail and headed down the wrong path. Came in and tried to throw his attitude around. Funny thing the DA who had put him in jail was working out in the same room, they didn't recognize each other. Anyway I think My w is realizing we have a combined skill set that together is fantastic. We are one hell of a team.
