All I can say is go. You’ve been invited, you in-laws are happy for you to go, you want to go, the kids want you to go so go. If you were truly detached going would not be a problem would it? If it’s a problem for your H I would suggest that he’s not as over you as he would like to think. And I’m not saying that to give you hope.

I have a similar situation just after Christmas, but in my case my H is insisting that I don’t go even though the kids and the rest of the family are happy to have me there. Is he as over me as he says? I don’t think so.
