So sorry about your D's father's inconsiderate and selfish actions. Maybe things will turn around and he will be there for her Confirmation this weekend. My rule is: Always be prepared for the worst, than anything else is better when it happens. Even if he sends her a gift, it would be better than nothing, for her sake.
Is your H religious? I've found most men who are not don't have any realization of Easter. Never notice the bunnies and chocolates and baskets when they walk through a Wal-Mart. DUH!
Yes, another Mother's Day without a gift from my H. I'll have to buy my own fishing tackle.
So plan something, just you and the kids to go out and enjoy your special day.
