My Husband Missed Our Daughter's First Solo for Another Pregnant Woman

Synopsis

My daughter practiced for four straight months for her first piano solo. My husband promised he'd be in the front row, but he never showed up. He was at the hospital with another woman who was seven months pregnant. "At least our kids have both of us. She has no one." But later, I found out this wasn't the first important moment in our daughter's life he had missed because of her. And it wouldn't be the last. Then one day, that woman showed up at our house with two suitcases, and my husband looked toward our daughter's bedroom. "Let Sophie stay in the study for a while. She's twelve. She'll understand." But that was the moment I stopped asking my children to make room for someone else.
