Is it normal that I feel this fond of my child's first mom lately?

Has any one felt like this? Ive posted before about my sons bmom, being young,bad decisions etc. We have an oa and visits set to 3x per year but we get together bout 1xa month. She recently did something that blew my mind, signed up for jobcore and leaving for 6months -year for schooling! I am so proud of her! I mean after all the really bad decisions WOW what a great one! well we had a nice visit today all day actually, and when i dropped her off i felt SAD! I didnt expect that. See, latley when i see her, i kind of feel even a closer connection to my son. Is that weird?? Does anyone else feel like that during visits? And when I said bye..see you in 6months, my heart BROKE! Here was this girl who messed up so bad that her child was removed and now made a great decision! I felt proud. proud for my son because like i told her now he DOES have a reason to be proud of you! so i guess myquestion is when you visit with first parents do any of you feel like that?
