Yes Puppy, becuase the kids are so young, I feel like its my responsibility to make sure they know it their mothers birthday, they have something for her and are able to celebrate her birthday with her.

WDID: I guess I'm thinking along the lines of that they are divorced already....even though they are not. I think it is unreasonable to think that your divorced husband would give you a birthday party. If I left my husband I would think it was VERY strange that he got me a cake and sang happy birthday with my son.
I'm thinking on those lines also WDID. I'm divorced and that's how I approach things, I'm not giving her a party, cake with her kids, and making sure the kids have cards and a gift for her (I'm not planning on giving her anything present or card). Its for the kids more than anything.

I don't want to, hopefully, she says she wants to take them out for a couple of hours, then all I have to do is make sure they get their homework done early. Its a school night so they cannot say out to long.

This is the crap that I don't like, because of the kids, I'm tied to this WAS forever. This is the crap that drives me nuts. I'm forced to do things for her for the benefit of the kids. At least while they are young. Then every time the kids have a birthday, I'll have to invite her over

WHEN DOES THE MADNESSS END
