I want to thank you so much for your prayers. I can see how God is working and maybe you can see it, too.

Husband came over on Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday, while he and oldest child were sitting on the patio, a large white dove-like bird was sitting on the roof next door to us facing in our direction. Our oldest daughter took a picture of it.

On Sunday, since I was too sick to take the kids to church, oldest daughter called her dad to take them. I said I doubted he would take them but I was wrong. She called him and he said yes, he would take them. She then asked him if he would go to church with her and he asked why and she said he was her favorite parent. Husband asked if mom heard her day that and of course she said yes, but that she did not care. He told her that he would attend church with her someday but not this day.

Much later in the day, I told him I heard that conversation. He thought I was coaching her on what to say to him and I let him know that I do not coach them, they say what they want to say to him and it is their words, not mine. Then I asked him if if occurred to him that maybe his kids miss him.

Later than this, he took the girls and they went grocery shopping. He hasn't done that since he moved out! I thanked him and then he went his merry way.

He is coming over on Tuesday night, will be here with us on Thanksgiving, and will mow the lawn and help the kids decorate the Christmas tree next weekend.

One more little note: The girls told me that when he put the groceries in the trunk, he had what appeared to be all of his stuff in there--clothes, etc. and even his work clothes, they said.

I find this odd.

I think the court thing has him coming out of the darkness so to speak.
