Dinner was at our local Japanese restaurant as the end of the shopping day. A successful day, one that G found some shoes, finally, after a long search.
Over dinner G shared a past story from his life with a girlfriend at the time, S. Listening to what unfolded and what had happened really gave me a better understanding of G. It also, in another way, really reassured me of G's commitment to me, the kids and our relationship. And an appreciation of how much he opened up his life to me and gave to me. It was only me that couldn't ask for help or communicate clearly. I've not doubted that G isn't in it, we've certainly had moments that have confused me but G has always made me see that he's in it. I'm the one that will hit a rough moment in time and put a wall up. G's taught me not to, taught me to talk, be fair and stay on topic.
A few things happened this weekend that made me see more clearly his commitment to me. His love. It was nice. It felt like I was moving in to a better place after dealing with some trauma.
Tonight I cleared the kids lego, sorted out their clothes, washed their sheets and prepared for the new week. It's Oscar's birthday coming up. He's turning 9! Already.
