No BD, you may not take DS for Mother's Day

BD calls this morning (and wakes me up) to ask if he can have DS for two hours in the middle of the day. And he wants me to drive DS 45 minutes to do so. Absolutely not. It's Mother's Day ffs. We have plans. All. Day. And we seriously do.

I understand that DS hasn't seen his sister since 12/23/12, but BD had the opportunity for DS & his DD, E, to see each other yesterday. And BD passed on it and decided to postpone their reunion to 6/22. His choice. Not mine. I was willing to drive one hour to meet at a great kid place where it would have been perfect for DS & E to see each other. And the place was big enough that DH & I could have left them to bond but not had to drive somewhere else. And BD passed, because it would have meant he had to drive 2 hours.

I'm sorry BD, but I have been overly accommodating for DS & E to see each other this past year of you having this battle of custody with XG. I have switched visitation times more times than I can count, driven DS for p/u & d/o, and even helped you with other things regarding them on countless occasions. I'm sorry, but Mother's Day is my day. And this is the one day I'm not going to completely alter my plans to cater to your last minute plans.

I feel bad that DS won't get to see E, his sister, today, but I'm d@mn proud of myself for standing my ground.

That is all.

  • Good for you! I can't believe he has the nerve to call you on mother's day when he turned down yesterday. And to wake you up no less! Ugh
