OK....thanks to everyone...Ive now got a heap of christmas Cards being sent to us from EVERYWHERE.....

which is wonderful, but it also means I gotta go send some back....(i stopped it 5 years ago....)

Im off to go get some tomorrow and start writting....I would luv to send a pic of us....that would be Me, my DH and my 2 kids....cos thats my new family...

The skids live with their mom and we NEVA SEE THEM ANYMORE...since the blow up court case...

and my eldest son moved back to Australia to stay with his father and the dog....whilst awaiting his army enlistment day...

So, In my gut I feel its wrong sending out a pic of just my DH, I and my 2 kids with our xmas cards....

I can leave it out...but would love to hear what your views on it is?

You guys give me confidence....

Yup, leave the skids out! I don't ever involve my DH's ex-wife's kids in my Christmas cards.

well...it looks like its not an unusual thing then...

So Yeah - Ill leave the slags kids off our picture and ill not mention any of them in our xmas letter....

It was just us here all year so why fluff and dance around the subject??? Just deal with it and go for it.....

Thanks for giving me the strength to do it....

No problems what-so-ever! I not only have a picture of only DS8months on the Christmas card, but at DH's suggestion, I didn't include SD20 when signing it. Only DH, Z3girl, DS, dog, and cat. SD20 can be included in BM's cards!

How can you put them in a pic if you never see them? Impossible. IF anyone says a word that is what I'd tell them! "we never see them so how can I put them in a pic?"

I say go for it and stop feeling guilty it is their fault if they want to be a part of their dads life they have that option and ball is in their court! Life doesn't stop just b/c skids refuse to be a part of their dads life.

I agree that if that is your family Id go for it. Ive already gotten backlash for not including SD in our 'family xmas photo' Im not sending the pic to anyone or giving it to anyone in FDHs family. The picture really was for me.

FIL already snapped on not being able to figure out why/how we could take a pic without her (omg!) haha, because thats the pic I wanted!

I think they just like to whine ; for the sake of whining....

ss14 one day when I used to allow him to be my facebook friend, carried on like a spoilt brat bc I didnt put enought photos of him on MY FACEBOOK PAGE....MY facebook page!!!!?????

I felt like saying 'are you fn serioious you dick head'?

Then not long after he complained to my SIL that there wearnt enough photos of him hanging around the walls of our home...she shot him down in flames saying there's photos everywhere....which their are..but he wanted updated ones....

'ummmm... propably not gunnu happen....besides, why would I wanna do that for tosser?...why would I want to look at you....your body and face are representations of selfishness and being a big fat guts at every fast food store in this country...???? ' (and you look just like your slag mother)

sorry still bitching today....must be that time of the month....

Christmas is a time that all children love. The problem is that most households only have decorations in the living rooms and not the bedroom. There are many ways that you can make your child's bedroom more festive. Smile Funny christmas messages
