My kids are at their Dads. They have been there for a week and come back tomorrow afternoon.

I have missed the whole build up to Christmas with them. Ok I understand he is their Dad and he should get a share if Christmas too but DD aged 7 just emailed me. All she said was I miss you so much Mummy with a sad face and lots of kisses and now I am trying so hard not to cry. I miss DS too but it I'd DD who usually helps with baking and wrapping and likes to go to the Carol Service with me.

Wine

And a hearty well done. Not long to go. They will thank you in the future.

Hopefully next year you'll get all the build up?

So it should be your turn next year, right? And good for you for sharing so nicely with their Dad. Thanks

What a fabulous afternoon you will have tomorrow! Is all the baking etc done or did you hold something back to share with DD? Either way, enjoy your evening with a nice glass of Wine or a cup of Brew and enjoy the offerings on TV.

Merry Christmas!

I hope you all had a lovely day. Horrible having to be apart from your children at Christmas. I am waving goodbye tomorrow for five days, and am dreading it. I've had such a lovely time with them over the past few days, and wish they were staying here with me rather than going off to be fussed over by my ex's family.
