I will be in the same position soon as H's bday is in a couple of weeks. Last night, I told H I won't be involved with any celebration plans and he could spend the day with DDs. I will have to take the girls out so they can pick out a small gift for their dad. And its his big 40 and I had wanted to something special for him.


Me: 42, H: 43
Daughters: 7,5
Together: 16 Married: 9
