Since my separation from their dad, both the boys feel extra protective about me. They have said ridiculous statements such as they would take care of me, and I would never have to work. And, that they would build a library for me - not sure if it is a room or a building?! They want me to get back to leisurely reading that I used to enjoy so much and don’t do so anymore.
When making such proclamations, they seem very united. Then, they have opposing views regarding the path their mom gets to choose, moving forward!
ASid is all for his mom meeting someone suitable and starting life fresh. Hans is all about his mom NOT meeting anyone ever! I guess it makes sense. ASid is 23 and independent. Hans is 16 and still quite dependent. Their dad has moved out and moved on. Hans feels the abandonment more so than ASid. If their mom moves on with someone else, where does that leave Hans?!
Luckily, for the boy, he is his mom's priority and reason to be. Also, his mom is happy where she is.
As I am writing this post, I have gone from 1st person to 3rd person and back to 1st person. I feel like that in life too. There is me and there is the mom; but fortunately, we consult with each other. And I realized that the mom is a far superior being than me. On any given day, she has her head on straight. I believe the choices the mom makes work for me too. I am happy where I am.
