Newly separated...spouse left, 4th thread

[antlers]

Why didn't I offer for the kids to be with her on Mother's Day? I don't know! It wasn't intentional. This whole thing has been such an emotional trainwreck, and I sometimes am not able to think clearly. I now wish that I had offered for them to be over there earlier on that day, or even let them spend the night with her...I just didn't think about it...and now I feel bad for it. She has so much anger, and wants no communication at all except regarding the kids. I'm not initiating any communication. I was just trying to make it through another couple of days. I'm missing stuff sometimes that I otherwise wouldn't be missing!

I'm going to let her take them on Memorial Day, I just haven't responded yet. I really need some help with this response! I should have been more thoughtful regarding Mother's Day, and I feel bad about it, and I want to make whatever amends that I can regarding that.

I want her to know that I'm sorry about that, and that she can have them for the Memorial Day weekend, and that we can work with each other regarding our kids whenever the need arises.

Please help me word an appropriate response! Thanks in advance!
