Saw my kids yesterday--FINALLY

I am pretty sure that my daughter's T made a kind suggestion to my ex-husband about letting me see the kids. Her T, Dr. J, told me that "It's Mothers Day, for cripes sake!" I know he was thinking about how to work this, especially after my reaction to emails from my ex and his girlfriend a few weeks back. I think that dear Dr. J got a little freaked by my reaction and was able to really see what a jack@ss my ex has really been to me in regards to the kids. Both my kids came down the stairs to me carrying handmade cards, looking so proud. It had been so long since I saw them. Their dad kept them from me for 4 months! I almost cried, but managed to hold it in. They got great big hugs, and so did I! It was a short visit. I was afraid of it being too emotional and we didn't want it to be too much for the kids either. It was more for me, though, I think. I had them for two and a half-hours and took them to the park for a picnic and to play. It was a nice day and we had fun. I would still love to hold them and never let go. Due to my daughter's T breaking his hip and having surgery, her next appointment is in two weeks--when I am supposed to see the kids again. Hmmm. Me thinks that Dr. J wants to see me. We used to meet regularly on my weekends with the kids. I suppose he wants to start that again. He said that he'd call this next week, so I imagine he'll say something.

I forgot to give my daughter one of her birthday giftcards when I took them back, so I called and talked to her dad so I could stop and drop it off in a while. Okay, he'd tell her that I was coming with it. So I go back there and the ex's ******--I mean, girlfriend--answered the door. She didn't say a word, just looked at me like what I think I'm doing. I gave her the giftcard for my daughter and left. She wrote the nastiest email to me a few weeks ago, and caused the reaction in me that freaked my daughter's T. Seeing her again made feel emotional again and I don't know what. I don't know how to explain. Maybe its the emotion, the anger, everything, I just don't know. I don't know how to explain how I felt but "triggered" after seeing her.

Yay on seeing the kids! That's great! Congrats!

Oh Inky, I can only imagine the excitement you must've been feeling to finally see your kids after four months. I'm glad that you got to spend some quality time with them at the park. I'm sure they loved spending time with you just as much as you with them. I hope you get many more opportunities to be with them. I'm soooooooooooo happy for you. You deserve this. What a wonderful way for you to celebrate Mother's Day!!! Special hugs being sent your way.
