I've got the ole anniversary coming up August 2nd. 12 years.
*SMACK* Ouch.

How about a card that says "It's our anniv, and It's still worth remembering" and including a photo of the girls? Then sign it only with your name, not "love always" etc. I mean,if the only way to have these wonderful little women (d's) in your life was to endure all this, then wouldn't you do it all again in a heartbeat? Maybe that could be a safe approach to seeing your M, around your wife...
Just a thought. And Kev, expect no response from her before or after, okay? That way, no disappointment. If she sends you something, be gracious and leave it at that. If your d's bring it up, make it ALL about them and do you see how that makes sense for your d's? My kids loved hearing that, b/c at one point they blamed themselves for our problems. I told them all that, it's b/c of them that I would NEVER regret M their dad no matter what happened. j-
