I wonder if others have noticed their MLCer's not being on time. I can only remember once in the last ten months where H was here to pick up the Ds a little early instead of the usual very late. The girl's joke now about if he'll get here on 'our time' or 'daddy time'.
I hear you about the special family events. Anything that H shows up for he swoops in and then out again. His head and heart are definitely not with the kids.
Is it just the selfishness that makes the WA's either not realize or not care about the damage they're doing to their children?
What is the saddest thing for me is that although they still love their father, the kids no longer respect him.
One thing I'm sure of Mila, is that you made D's b-day special for her. It may have been different from the previous ways you celebrated it, but it created special memories for her of the mother whose always been there for her and who she can always count on.
BTW, I hope your D mentions the cake to your H that he missed out on. S happened to talk about the blueberry pie I made for him to the guys at work. His dad happened to be in that group. H used to love my pies. LOL
