Also, just a note. My kids come home Sunday morning. That is when I thought I would celebrate with them.... not sure though.

What about taking him up on having them for breakfast lunch or dinner whatever works good for your work schedule.....i mean even though he complained u being into the kids too much that is your bday. But no sense in having them when you are away at work.....(at least he thought of your bday---i know my thought would go to he probably has plans...but i bet the way your h is acting he may really be thinking of you...we can alwasy hope)
One thing I have learned is to be true to yourself. IF YOU WANT YOUR KIDS on YOUR birthday then do it.
A GREAT idea for YOUR special day: (if it is on a weekend day that isn't FRIDAY) Breakfast with your kiddos at your favorite breakfast restaurant. Celebrate with them for awhile. Then have them go BACK TO DADDYS so you can celebrate YOUR day with ADULTS. (go out have a good time.)
No matter what T it is ABOUT YOU and what YOU want to do on YOUR DAY.

Trusting, Happy Birthday. I hope your special day was extra special.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
It was sad not having ex around, but my kids were full of love and hugs......

Hi guys. The cra*p continues in my sitch, but I'm plugging on. Trusting, at least he did acknowledge your b-day. I think that says something. Since my h and I separated the first of Jan. I thought he might have acknowledged me on v-day, but he didn't. I think he was out w/og instead.
Cag- You know what, we will all be happy again. We have to move forward and allow/make ourselves be happy again. You guys are WAY farther along in this than I am, but I must be sure that I see the light at the end of the tunnel. It's the only way we can make it through.
