I have always done things seperate...because you know...that is the way it is
we were not a unit anymore
and
I don't meant to sound harsh and snarky but there are many many things that our kids want that they can't have so I always wanted to make sure they knew that what they had with me was stable...even if other things changed
I am happily with someone and we celebrate the birthdays altogether because we are a family but I still do something special with them each that has followed tradtions forever
they get what they want to eat they get to pick a movie we all go to
and
afterward
i snuggle them up and tell them about when they were born and how big they were and how I loved them so much
