I took the girls down there this past Saturday and their mom said over the phone that she would be seeing the girls. This is how it has been since she and I split up. Apparently, the girls spent all day Saturday looking out the window waiting for their mother to no avail. Then, on Saturday night their mom called them. They were supposed to go to church on Sunday but their mom said they could “Either go to church or see her”. The kids obviously chose to see their mother.

While I was at a wedding reception with my girlfriend, I received a text message from the girls mom. It read…

Ex-Wife: What time are you getting them tomorrow? Could I just bring them home, say 5?

I answered: No. I have all planned with your mom.

I simply do not want my ex-wife here at my home because I have my own life and my girlfriend and her daughter are always here. I do not and will not put them in a situation to be treated like crap by the ex. Plus, she steals from me every time she is here.

The ex-wife’s mother called me just after I received this text message and asked me about the ex picking up the girls. I told her “No” because they already had plans and we were not going to adjust our lives to suit her.

When I picked up the girls the next day, I found out that their mother decided NOT to see the girls. Why? I have no idea. She had the opportunity and this is they way things have gone for a while.

Last night their mom called and talked to my oldest daughter. After their conversation, my oldest daughter said that “Mommy was going to call me about picking her up from school the next day”.

I have not received a phone call or nothing from her. Just one more disappointment for my daughters. Luckily, they have me to make things better and my girlfriend who treats them fantastically well.

Last night we decorated Christmas cookies. My girlfriend, her daughter, my girlfriend’s brother & his wife, and my girlfriend’s daughter’s father were over here. I hope that all made sense. We had a super time with all the kids.

The ex-wife called and talked to my oldest daughter. After my daughter was done, she said that mommy wanted to talk to me. I got on the phone and she starts saying that “I thought we weren’t going to bring the kids around anybody that both of us didn’t know”. What??? First off, she and I have never had any kind of conversation like that. Then I started to tell her that it was my girlfriend’s family and came to my senses and told her “I don’t have time for this” and hung up.

Then I received the following text messages…

Time out. I have never kept the girls from their mom and they are always more than welcome to call her anytime. My oldest even text messages her all the time. These are simply figments of her messed up imagination.

That’s it. I didn’t respond after that because I simply had more important things to do and more important people to attend to.
