So it might be a bit early to be thinking about christmas but I want to prepare in advance. We have 3 DC ages 13, 6 and 2. This is our first Christmas since we split. Most my family live a few hours away so we'd see his at christmas and mine at new year. Boxing day is DS's birthday and also their aunt's (ex's sister) so I'm not sure how we're exactly going to split this. There's many christmas traditions I'm sure DC would love to still do I'm considering maybe spending the early part of the morning with them, opening presents and having breakfast before letting their dad have them for the rest of the day, no idea what I'll do but the kids will have fun. Usually we go down to the beach boxing day morning, yes an english beach in the middle of winter. Then go out for a meal to celebrate the birthdays. Should i just let them spend the couple days with their dad and then take them down to see my family at New year?
