Two years post-divorce and things are finally not awkward

Just wanted to share because I know a lot of you are in the thick of it right now. My ex and I can actually sit in the same room at our kids' events without tension. We joke around. We coordinate without it feeling forced. We even went to our 11yo's birthday dinner as a family last week and it felt... normal? Like, divorced normal, not "we're pretending to get along for the kids" normal.

I'm not saying it happens fast or that I did anything special, but the relationships DO improve with time. Hang in there.
