@luxemiaa I do however think it’s worth mentioning that it was really important to you and you would’ve loved to have him there too. You could also mention celebrating with just the two of you.
@luxemiaa You can feel disappointed and understand that his kids come first in his life. I’m not gonna invalidate your feelings just to say he’s in the right but I’m also not gonna say that it’s not fair. Sometimes you won’t get closure for something like this. You’ll just have to move on.
