I agree with Bug here too. As usual. This is a glimpse at your likely future. Why miss filming your child for sake of that. My W ( ex I guess now) deal with this every week since last year....except no OM shows up. It is awkward at first but I really absorbed myself in them and their play and had fun, especially with the team mates other parents. I does not bother me anymore. Our D14 won Provincial Gold in fast pitch this summer and even with all the tension and strain, we still hi-fixed each other. Yes, you can do it....for you and the kids, as I am witnessing too, by not even trying to overcompensate and wife is that they see through it with her and have made comments. That is your H's problem from now until forever. Enjoy and love your kids,

Stay safe throughout the fire and be alert. This may be a good opportunitynfornyounto handle a crisis and look after your kids in a calm, rational and logical manner. Focus on what you need to do.
Here in Canada (Toronto area) is has been-15C. I will take your warmth today, but not fire hot. Stay safe and be logical and responsible and proud once you do.
