I have told H that I want the kids Christmas Eve and Christmas day till 3pm. He can pick them up then. Also I told him I would like the kids on New Year's Eve. I am ok with this arrangement...although it's very tough to get used to us just not being together as a family. Also, other years, H would come by and celebrate Christmas with us. I am thinking whether I should ask H to join me and the kids for lunch/brunch on Christmas day...then again...why should it be up to me again?!
H agreed to what I wanted. Thank God. I just told the kids about it...I cried a bit. But just told them it had nothing to do with having to share them with their daddy, but that sometimes I have trouble sharing them with the ow. They were so sweet ! And they didn't want to be with them on New Year's eve...so I'm glad that I asked for that day.
I'm wondering whether I should now ask him for Christmas Day.
