I removed all pictures of my XW from my house and gave them to her. I did not want to be reminded continually of my past life with her and the resulting breakup of our family. Someday, I may wish to look at pictures of us again as I have those on disk. But my current attitude is to plow forward and not be reminded of or dwell on the past.

Your wife's drama is understandable. She is going through a tough time just as you and your daughters are.

Just so you know, walk away spouses do change their minds as mine did.
