Well I had a surprising turn of events today.
Ex's family celebrates Christmas today. Out of the blue and very unexpectantly, my kids decided they did not want to go.
I have been gearing up for this for months. Every year they go off with ex and I feel sad that I am missing out on their joy. They decided that they did not want to leave me. I encouraged them to go, telling them how much everyone wants to see them. They decided to stay home. I am in shock.....
