Dinner Conversation

Nicholas, Christopher and I went to 4:00 Mass yesterday and then Nicholas wanted to go to Steak N Shake for dinner. He didn't just want take out, he wanted to go inside and eat together. We were having a great time, joking, feeding the baby, when Nicholas' eyes teared up and he laid his head down on the table. I asked what was wrong and he said "I'm sad about you and dad. Let's talk about it." "OK, what do you want to say?" "No you talk, talk about it mom." "Well, mommy and daddy aren't going to be married anymore but you can call daddy anytime and go and visit." "Remember when last week and last week and last week daddy didn't come to pick me up but he was supposed to?" "Yes, I remember." "Well, when daddy didn't come last week and last week you yelled at him for not coming to get me right?" "Um, yes, I guess I did." "So you yelled at dad for not coming to get me when he was suppose to come and get me, I heard you, right?" "Did you hear me?" "Yes, I heard you." "Finish your chicken, OK, do you feel better now?" "Yes, I do. What can we have dessert while we have a pajama party tonight?"
