[QUOTE="klmno, post: 333035, member: 3699"] Linda, this sounds great to me! You two have come a lot further than I'd expected and this really should make both of you more at ease about her return home and start things out on a good path. I watched one of those talk shows last week and they were saying that just letting someone else know that you want to talk in order to work things out and keep the lines of communication open, not because they should expect to here the worst, can relieve so much pressure in any family relationship. difficult child and I made one very small step in that direction this past weekend at visitation and it left me feeling like at least the door was cracked now to allow more communication in the future. I want it to get to the point you described before he comes home, including "checking in" with each other to make sure our stresses with each other don't build up to the point they did before. Of course, I have no idea what our plan B will be. I applaud you and kt to getting this far when only a few weeks ago you were really stressed over how this was going to go. I'm sure you're still nervous about it, and I will be when difficult child comes home too, but I hopw this meeting today serves to provide you a little reassurance and some hope for a better future for both of you!
