Thanks for sharing this wonderful moment! Sometimes we get so caught up in all the negatives we forget that there are many success stories.
I am in recovery myself. I love hearing stories of others in recovery pursuing their education and really moving forward in their lives.
I hope you two can enjoy each other when he comes home. Having boundaries is essential, but we must also remember how to be happy and enjoy each other also
Although we don't ever want to be fooled again, we don't want to be so guarded we forget to embrace the good times and start making happy memories instead of the ones from the past that hang over our heads.
