Hi BND, It is great to read your thread and see how well everything is going. I am so so happy for you and your family. I agree with Barbie Doll's earlier post, that you want to take it easy in the beginning, not too many questions, and just do fun things together. Let H take the lead a bit, for the pace of things. And when you are moving faster than H, go find some GAL activity for a break so that it is not all on H. I speak from experience that I overwhelmed my H. I was always up to something, and I slept a lot less than H too. We are just differently paced. So I have to give him space for his down time, and for his pace. I am learning that to the extreme right now, but I will never forget it
I am excited about your cruise plans. I have just been given the gift of a cruise by my birth mother. That will take some of the sting out of my separation days! I am going to Tahiti, Easter Island, Bora Bora, and the coast of Chile, leaving in March. I am so excited, this is something that I would not afford right now, and she is treating. It is wonderful to be treated. I feel that your H wants to treat you, to pamper you, to honor you. This is such a good thing. I hope you will get a new bathing suit and a trip to Victoria's Secret as part of your pre-trip planning. You (and your story) inspire me. I feel like if you can do it, I can do it. Thank you BND!
