Actually letting go
Every night when we put our son to bed Ava does the tucking in (after I say goodnight) and I wait out in the hallway by the door. She comes out and shuts the door and thus begins our transition from adults-with-kid to adults.
Sometimes I’m naked. I’m naked a lot around the house but sometimes I’m naked when Ava emerges from the bedroom. Once a while ago I suggested that a good way for me to let Ava know that I was feeling particularly submissive would be for me to face the wall, naked as I was, and wait for her to emerge and do as she will. As our house is laid out I would have to wait not as she came up directly behind me…
I’ve never done it.
I’ve certainly felt “that” submissive since I mentioned it; but even on nights when I know I’m feeling that way and I stand naked in the hall something keeps me from turning and facing the wall and accepting her judgement.
Maybe I can’t really let go…
