Joshua returns home last night and seems to be looking at me with something he wants to say. He is a boy of few words and you really have to pay attention when he does say something, or says it without saying it.
Anyways, after about an hour of checking out the mood he says in a kind of matter of fact way "So, I saw that you wrote about me in your blog while I was at Grandma's." And I look at him and answer "Yes, I did, you know I write about you all of the time."
Josh says "Yeah, but what you wrote did not make me feel too good about myself."
I am busy while talking to him and not giving the full attention I could have, so I say "I wrote what I was feeling and I do not always write just the good stuff."
Now today, things have returned back to normal and it just occurred to me.... That small interaction was Josh's way of making it right between us, that was a Josh apology or recognition of his actions.
Man, why am I not always on the ball!! I missed that one! My oh my, there is still a lamb in that wolf's clothing. All is well, I do love that kid!!
