You know, you are right- I shouldn't have laughed about this situation at all, and thank you for pointing that out to me.

Last Fall, my husband of 17 years informed me out of the blue that he wanted a divorce- and unknown to me/our children, he already had my 'replacment' witing in the wings.

So, yes. I certainly *have* felt the sting/humiliation of betrayal, and if for no other reason, I really should have been more respectful of this particular situation. I do appreciate the 'reminder', as sometimes I tend to speak prior to thinking.

“You know, you are right- I shouldn't have laughed”

Your children are very, very fortunate to have you for their mother. If you display the strength of character, before your children, that you have communicated in your response, you will make them wealthy in how to deal with the problems of life.
If I could redo any part of my life, it would be how I responded to some really dark days, keeping in mind the effect it was having on my kids, because they were hurting, too. (Indelible impressions.) We're just human, and pain comes out in "funny" ways.
