Pack, great post. I think you're killing it in the father department! And I've always liked your PIES. I envy your crushing it at CrossFit too!
Now, while I understand you're sentiment, your exW has a point. My W is the child of a very messy divorce. I've known her since she was in her 20s. I've watched her struggle her whole life because her mom and dad can't stand to be in the same room together. It has made all the events in her life so difficult.
I guess all I'm saying is that you don't have to be best friends with your ex, but for the kids sake you could at least try to get along. Be the bigger person. A lot of my father-in-law's bitterness was over the money he had to pay to my mother-in-law. Don't be that guy.
Just wanted to give you the perspective from a child of divorce's view. Other wise, keep up the awesome work you've been doing.
