Thanks you guys, but really, I've been out of the family for 15 years and I don't dwell on it - I've moved on. I've seen them since at my son's wedding and they were all trying to get me back into the family. I told them they'd have to adopt a new brother. hehehe They don't like my replacement. If I wanted to see them, I could since they live close, but it's better for me to stay away because they always want to talk about my ex and keep me updated on how miserable he is.

Yes, the older sister who took them in is very special, now a widow. She had 4 girls of her own....you'd think she'd had enough of children by that time.

I was very fortunate to have had them in my life.
