Just today she texted me asking to come to gymnastics (for my daughter) tomorrow. I waited hours before I texted her back...
Good job stopping and thinking before replying.

I rarely turn down spending time with my kids. I didn't divorce them!

That line troubles me. Could you drop those for two hours and just focus on your daughter? If it helps, you could sit apart from her. I sometimes did that when the D was fresh between my ex-wife and I. My conversations were limited to a few words--usually a comment at the end about our child's performance.
