Quick update: Holidays went fine. Celebrated Christmas separately this year, and it went fine. My daughter cried as she went to bed on Christmas Eve because she was sad it was split - that sucked. I just tried to tell her it was okay to be sad and was with her in it.
That's good Scotty B. listen and validate

That's ok. Your kids are older. Limited contact is good for detachment.

Not as bad as you thought right?

Good stuff. No moving in anytime soon. Enjoy your new life.
