I did try and tell myself they would be over it quickly, and honestly they probably were. But it was a lot more emotional than daycare dropoffs and I felt pretty helpless - that's pretty rotten for a parent as I am sure you can commiserate. I was certainly happier than usual to see them today. STBX dropped them off with no drama. He walked them over to the car and then had the phone out when he was two steps away. Grrrr.
Did your X follow through with her wedding plans? Hope the kids are doing ok - any improvement with SS?
