Zig,

It's good to see how well you are doing. You are truly a very strong and positive person and you are now radiating it to everyone around you.

Kudos to you also for keeping your sitch with H separate from your in-laws. I understand where you are coming from. I have also had an amazing relationship with all of my Hs family and both them and I have decided that regardless of what happens with H, we are and will always be family and will continue treating each other as such. (Although H is not too happy about this, lol...)

I also feel it's a great example for my kids and family is everything to me, so I want them to grow up with a close R with extended family.

I'll keep checking on you to get inspired and remain positive myself!
