I often think - whatever would our S's make of it if they knew our simple email had been redrafted 5 times with input from friends all over the world!

I'm sure they'd think we were manipulative and devious and they were right to leave.

Hey OD - I think of this too. I carefully guard this secret. It's really the only thing that I hide from W.

I've never put so much thought into every single word that I say (and I do worry that she'll find out that the words are not always my own - but the intention is). The help and care here is invaluable.

Take Care OD!

fat finger syndrome again!

OD, I see this very differently
1. Shows we want clarity and care how we say what we say
2. Shows meaning before emotion
3. Removes negativity and bias on our part and creates trust
4. Communications move in a positive manner: win/win
5. We learn from this in all communications not just this one with W, practice
6. It is more loving and moves to the norm

Besides those friends have the best interests of Mr and Mrs OD at their core
