Yes, D13 and I will be celebrating together on Friday or Saturday. It will be fine.

Apparently she does say "no" sometimes--just not always. She verbalized several months back that she has a fear that "he'll stop loving me like he stopped loving you." So I think she's trying, to a certain extent, to please him. I think that my supporting her ability to say "no," and stepping in to provide her an escape route, will be helpful in her willingness to hold her boundaries.
