Have ya'll d'd rents thought about all the things that we are going to encounter and how we should handle it?
Good example: Peanut's father is on vaca w/ Bessie. I am purely speculatin' Sturgis based on my immense detest for the festival or for his need to go solo...
So he's missing most of his regularly scheduled visit with Peanut. (His loss)...Peanut doesn't want to go with him on Sunday though. So I talked to her this morning about being honest with us and not to worry about hurt feelings, etc. She didn't want to tell him she didn't want to go with him on Sunday. So should I? Or should she? If I do it, am I her advocate or seen as a B****? If she does it, is that fair to her?
AUGH!!!!!!!!!
Then a friend of mine asked or wanted to have the talk on what I will say when she comes to me with "I want to live with my dad."
So what other issues am I NOT thinking of?
BTW we took a walk/bike ride Tuesday to check out the new school & play ground. The school was open so we got a tour. Brand new. She's a first year! My third grader. I watched her walking around, so excited and nearly broke down.
I love her so much and am happy/sad she's growing into such a cool little person. But it makes me sad to see my baby wandering the halls as a big third grader. Then there's the guilt that maybe I didn't do all I could/should have to keep an in tact family. Then... well ya'll know how this goes right?

She stayed with me. I sent a text that said she wanted to hang with me on Sunday. He then wanted her last night. She didn't want to go because there is nothing to do there. I had a meeting at the store (where I tried to quit and they wouldn't let me) and I told her she might go see her grandma.
She didn't want to go - nothing to do.
She went with half her room
He took her to DQ at 8:45. Idiot!

Not a parent but with some of the things, I would not worry until they happen. If they even do happen and then you have worried for naught. For instance, the question of is she comes to you saying she wants to live her dad.
