Since I found out good news from my doctors, I’ve been slowly letting people know that I get to resume my routines and rejoin my community events. I’ve been on cloud 9. I can’t wait to see my people in person and work my mental and emotional stuff out through sweat and tears, instead of near isolation and pain. It also means I’ll get to start planning to go back to work. I need that.
The kids got to see Birth Dad 1 and 2. Both are appreciative of me and thank me for what we’re doing. I am slowly learning to say you’re welcome. It wasn’t nearly as emotional or vulnerable for the kids to see dad, so that was a plus. They were pretty well behaved throughout the day too. We came home and switched some things around in their room, we watched tv and made dinner together. They fell asleep right after story time… and we promptly went to bed as well.
