[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]20:47 here.  How old are the kids?  If they are little, i don't think it matters since they really wouldnt understand the difference a day makes (unless you make a big deal out of it to them).  But, growing up, i can also remember my dad taking my brother and i to a red sox game so my mom could have "kid free" time on her bday or going shopping with my mom so my dad could go to a game with some buddies.   Only happened a couple of times though.  And i never cared because we still did the birthday celebration at some point.[/quote]

The kids are young -- 2 kids under 5.  I suppose my expectation of him wanting to spend time with us on his birthday was unrealistic and I should become more accepting.  I take care of our kids by myself after work and on weekends, but thought he would want to spend his birthday with us if he did not have to work.  That is what I would have done if it were me -- perhaps that is the problem.  I was fine with the football game or I sucked it up, but then he asked whether he could stay for dinner and I lost it with him.[/quote]
