I get that sadness every now and then too, when the kids have their triumphs at school, or video game, etc, lol!
It comes around less and less as time flows.
The holidays are going to be interesting, first season without stbxw, I am going on overdrive and 4X4 to create new traditions around the house, show the kids that life does keep going, and maybe can be better than it was.
Hang in there!
