You didn't ask for any of this, but you were kind, and you let me be me, and you let me work through the things I needed to work through, and you weren't critical, and you supported me, and you loved our kids, and you never tried to get our kids to be mean or unkind to me, and you put up with all of this.

There's two sides to this, and more than anything, both of these sides, the only thing that either one of us should be caring about is making sure these kids are provided for, and that they have the things they want and need for their lives.
