Good surprises can happen!

I had a difficult divorce (aren't they all?), and worked hard to make it work.

I think I have had confirmation that I did quite well.

I was recently invited to my former husband's home for a BBQ lunch by my son, my former husband and his new wife. Each asked me at different times to make sure I got the invitation.

This is an incredible shift from my own childhood and parent's divorce. Theirs was the worst kind of acrimonious divorce from the start to beyond my father's death. (Well, before then because their acrimony would have started during their marriage). My childhood felt so bad that I delayed leaving a bad marriage because I couldn't stand the thought of living the rest of my life the way they had....

So, it was really nice to be given that invitation!
