Bitter sweet day

Had my beautiful little ones yesterday and for most of today. Lovely morning opening presents and playing, before a tasty lunch. Then late in the afternoon dropped them off at former in-laws for the ex to pick them up later.
Home was very empty empty when I got home, and feeling pretty lousy now.
Do you know the thing I most get annoyed by? That all the great moments with the smalls, that I should be treasuring, are tarnished by me reminiscing or wishing ex was sharing it with us. I feel so stupid, it's been 2 years since she left me yet I'm not over her. It's a horrible combination of hate and love I feel for her and I just can't seem to free myself of it, or her.

Hope you've survived Christmas. It is hard. This post really touched me, you can't help how you feel and are honest about it. The love / hate thing is so true. You sound like a good dad and I'm sure it will get easier.
