I am so happy right now, I can't even put it into words!
I drove up with my ex and we had a good time together. Truthfully, it's too bad I'm not in love with him. It would be ideal. We're very much alike, we're actually very good friends, love the kids, etc. We could just move up there together. But - I'm just not, so that's that.
When I got there, I couldn't get over the house. They have a creek on their property, it's a beautiful Victorian in wonderful condition, with a front porch, and all the old wood, etc. I think there are 9 bedrooms. They have lots of land.
Jessie and I got along just like we did before she met Steve. We just fell right back into our old relationship. It was just so wonderful. She has grown up so much and has become very positive about her illness and life in general. I told her that I could see that she was raised properly and that she is definitely my child! She has been feeling well for over a year now - a miracle by itself. Sher looks wonderful and is very active. She loves her life up there and is very happy. She has become the boss in her marriage to a large degree. What a difference that is!
They seem quite happy together too.
The children are just my heart. My big one, Mackenzie is ten and is quite grown up.
She made honor roll, works very hard in school, loves the country, hates her parents, is always bored and grumpy - A typical pre-teen and I wouldn't be at all surprised if she isn't in an extended PMS mode. She hasn't begun yet, but once their hormones and period starts, girls can go into PMS for months! It's not the same between us since she's grown up so, so I'll have to find new ways we can connect, although we still love each other so much. I think she may be angry at me for not coming for so long, but Jessie said she won't talk about it if I ask her. If she wants to open up to me, she will. Jessie thinks she probably is, but she still loves me so much. She is angry at Jessie for being sick - a normal response for her age.
The two little ones are precious Brandon is 6 and a real boy. He's so sweet and loving. Kassidy never left my side, nor did she ever stop talking to me. I am her favorite person and should never have gone home.
I ended up having a good time with my SIL. He was distant at first, which wasn't great, but it was okay. Jessie told me she said something to him on her own, and he warmed up. When I left, I hugged him and told him that I loved him. (I'm not one to hold a grudge). He also seems to have changed - grown up a lot, and is so much happier.
I ended up staying an extra night and slept in their house instead of the motel.
I slept with the two little ones and the dogs. Mackenzie wasn't comfortable after the first night, so I told her to sleep with her Mom. You just can't fit so many people in one bed.
I'm going to get the camera attached to the computer and post some pictures.
