Honestly...they have never said they resented it...
They loved their daddy so much.. and loved me also... so.. I think it would have been hard either way.. living with me.. visiting dad.. or living with dad.. visiting me..
No matter how nice it all has been.. it's still divorce...and still the end of a family...
Obviously we have all adjusted.. but.. divorce still beats kids up in ways we might never really see or discuss...

Yes ex did marry her... and they are still happy...
I totally love her...
Now that older daughter is married...and younger daughter lives with me.. we don't talk quite as much... but.. anytime it involves our girls...we talk...either in person.. on the phone.. email..text...

I missed out on allot of class parties.. allot of field trips...

One thing I did not miss was 8th grade trip for both girls.. I closed the daycare both times... and went ... and there were other times that .. if I had enough advance notice.. I closed the daycare... but... so often you don't get enough advance notice...

Life time movie?
Yeah... probably..
I can tell you stories about the things we have gone through with my new husband's ex wife that will stand your hair on end...
But..we make it through...happier than ever...
