They say the grass is always greener... over the septic tank.
I know it's hard to watch you kids not have a close R with their Dad. I can't say I blame your S11 for feeling soso today about spending the night. It's sad what the kids will put themselves through to see and have aliitle time with their Dad. You son staying at her place, well that's just sad that he couldn't take a couple of days just for his son.
Enjoy D17's b-day! They grow up way to fast don't they? It would be nice if he got what he was missing, if only so your D17 would feel it. At least you get to keep all these moments.
