I have found myself so sad over Easter just thinking of the fun things we could have done for his kids and nice family day we could of had :( If we were still together we would of done the Easter morning thing with his kids,dinner with his family in the aftrenoon and dinner with mine in the evening like we did for Christmas.
Makes me wonder what if anything he is doing with his kids and how they all are but I can't contact him or his family to ask about them,I just can't.I have to try and stand my ground and keep my distance.

Oh sweetie:( tears for you cus it hurts and I feel it.:cry: You're right to stand your ground...but i know the what-ifs and the could-of-beens will haunt you for awhile. Try to get out and do something fun on Easter...you know one year I went out and bough a whole carton of eggs, and I spent the afternoon coloring them...like a kid. Then after, I went outside and hid them for my daughter (along with the eggs she colored)and some of the neighborhood kids. I felt so much better after. Visit your family, take a walk, and laugh...you'll feel better:)

Oh Cali.
I know how you feel...I fall into the same trap, and get thinking of how we used to be, and the good times..just try to take each day as it comes and journal alot. This is a grieving period we do, and it could last awhile...so try to ride it out....((((Hugs)))).

I know that holidays are extra hard, especially when you are so used to getting alot of little gifts in the mail, like I was. I just keep going on and stayin strong. Lots of hugs just for you Cali! :D

I haven't had to experience this yet, we reconnected around Thanksgiving and were still falling in love around Christmas time. By New Years Eve it was a little roguh but still not too bad. I worry now about three more Christmas' and three New Years Eve's wihtout him and I'm already dreading it. I don't have a family of my own so he is my family now. I'll be back I'm sure to my new PTO family when the time comes. It's almost tomorrow....chin up.
