Just Sharing
Today RM is going to meet my kids. We have been dating for over a month now and so far he has met almost all of my closest friends (did that all on my birthday night)and I have met a ton of his friends and basically the entire small town where he lives. He makes me feel so special when we are together. I have met his daughter and her boyfriend and also met his granddaughter. She is an adorable little 7 month old. Totally unfair of me to say ANYTHING bad or weird about him being a grandpa. I have to say that this is different for me. I have never dated a grandpa before. In all fairness I COULD be a grandma too. My eldest is 18…Lets not go there.
Back to the point…he is coming to town today for a full day of visits and house-warming parties and also a birthday party. The smart man that he is ..he is also bringing his dog along for the first time visit with my kids. Have I mentioned my kids love dogs? They may not even notice that man who brought a wonderful furry friend into their house. Smart man. Not that my kids are naughty or anything like that… but a furry friend will definitely up his stock in their eyes.
This whole meeting my “friend” is a bit scary for me. I want them to like him and for him to like them. He is a very calm and gentle man, I am hoping they sense that.
I am not looking for a “dad” for my kids, they have one of those. I feel I am simply sharing my completely wonderful children with someone who is special to me.
I really hope this goes well and he doesn’t run screaming all the way back to his little quiet town. Did I mention he has a fluffy-petable dog?
