I'm getting ready to have my kids get their picture taken for our Christmas cards.
WH lives in own apt. with OW.
How do I sign the cards? Most of the people that I send cards to, don't know the situation. Ya know you only talk to them once a year via Christmas cards?
If I sign my name and the kid's names, then people will wonder what happened to WH. Yeah I know I shouldn't care what people think, but I do.
The devil in me wants to say... yep it's only the 3 of us now. WH decided to have an A with someone 17 years younger and he's living with her now!
Boy would that make me feel good to do that.
I know revenge doesn't get anyone anywhere, but I'm just so hurt and sick of this whole mess.
I was thinking, maybe just "The Smith Family"? I kind of feel weird even doing that. I know the 3 of us are a family now, but without WH it doesn't seem like we are a family anymore.
Any suggestions?

I was just thinking about Christmas cards!!
I usually send a picture of the family along with a generic card. Since only DS and I will be in pic, I'll be signing it with our names, but that is my sitch.
As for how to sign your cards, well, you ARE still a family, just minus the WH. Why couldn't you sign it Smith family?

I am going to be nasty here. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
But how about if you took a cardboard cut out with you to the photography shop? Maybe tape a picture of WS to it. Take your family picture, then mail those out? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />
Otherwise. Just you and the kids. Signed, You and the kids. If people want to ask, answer or refer them to H. WS have to answer for thier actions eventually.

Lousy,
That is too funny. A real consideration though...
