Co-parenting after divorce isn’t easy, but one mom is thanking her lucky stars that she has such a healthy dynamic with her ex-husband. In a sweet video on social media, the remarried woman shared how well her former spouse gets along with her new family. It’s heartwarming to see how much the man cares, not only for their shared son, but for his ex’s other kids as well! This beautiful clip has received over four million views.
In the video, Mom’s ex-husband stopped by to pick up their son for the weekend. However, instead of leaving right away, he went inside to catch up with the kid’s stepdad. He also spent some time playing with his ex-wife’s younger children. Overall, the wholesome interaction was way too cute!
“When your ex is only supposed to pick up his son… but he comes in to see your husband, and your other children,” the woman wrote over the adorable footage.
“I’m so lucky to have two mature men, who have spent the last nine years getting along… for his sake,” she added, referring to her son. “And how nice for my children I’ve had since, to love seeing their big brother’s dad, too.”
