I’m sitting at the breakfast table with my stepson, trying to enjoy the morning. My husband is leaving on another business trip today for who knows how long. I try to get my attention to say, but he practically gives me the cold shoulder again as he is walking out the door. Well, at least the good news is that my stepson and I get to spend some time together. It’s been a while since I’ve felt seen. I tell my stepson that I certainly look forward to having a cuddle partner at night again. Let’s spend the next few days together having fun. In fact, let’s make the most of it to make up for his stepfather being gone. We should get dressed up, get some dinner, and spend a night out on the town.
