What a fantastic video. You both have a wonderful relationship and I hope you can hold it together for the rest of your lives. You seem so happy and work well together. You are also both adorably cute. I'm very happy for you.
I was sued for divorce and couldn't see my kids for two years. The third year after the divorce, I took them on a camping trip to Yellowstone and my 5 year old daughter asked why I was going with her into the women's rest rooms. My 8 year old son was in the back seat of the car with her. I said that I was a girl now so I had to use the women's rest rooms. My son, a precocious child inquired about exactly how that happened. He wanted details so I told both children briefly the specifics of the procedure. My son then said "Can we not talk about this anymore?" He was clearly upset.
I had instructions from my ex on what I was to wear and some other silly things that didn't make sense but I obeyed her instructions to the letter. I did ask the kids to call me a knick name of my legal name and they never could. Until my son was 22 years old he called me "Uhm." Now that they are grown, I'd rather they'd call me by my legal name but now they use the knick. For many years, I only was able to see them once each year. It nearly killed me. I did publish my story in 2006 and that drove my daughter away for many years. She made contact with me last year just as I was going through my divorce and was so kind. I know it will take time to get to know each other. It's really too bad I live so far away from them.
My best to you both and I hope I get to see any future videos!
