Update: My D10 went home with my parents, that live 3 hours away. My D9 and my S5 spent the day at my brother's new house. I taught my B how to use a weed wacker, he was VERY impressed with me. We called my H around 5 and asked him to meet us there.
Something happened today that really devastated me. I found out that my SIL had to have a biopsy on her breast. It is very scary. She finally has everything she wants; husband, child, house and now this. This in of itself makes me so greatful for what I have. Today! It could all come crashing down on me like a house of cards tomorrow but for right now, I am ok, I am happy.
My H ended up joining us. It was very nice. Although my brother picked up on how insecure my two youngest kids are. They are up Daddy's a$$. They are so afraid that he will leave and not come back. This, I believe, is a result of him staying out all night during this past winter.
I told them each (my B and SIL), seperately, that no matter what happens in their marriage, they need to communicate to eachother. They should not RUN to the arms of someone else. If anything, for the sake of their son. I see what it has done to my kids, and they do too. At least I know that I might possibly be helping another couple avoid the pain that I have been thru.
