Get Me On A Smoother Ride....Need Advice #7

[SueS]

Hi everyone-

Thanks so much for your input. I truly feel like I need to say something, I just don't know exactly what to say or how to start it.

Some good things.....D3 started in a new room at school today, so she thinks she's really a big girl now. We did find out from the doctor that she does have a bladder infection. Not that that's a good thing, but now knowing means we can treat it and not have to wonder or worry. D3 and I spent an immense amount of time together this weekend. We're mommy & daughter, so we're already close, but we seem to be forging a much closer bond the past few months. Part of me feels bad for H, but then the other part shouts to me.....IT'S HIS OWN FAULT!! Guys/Gals, I really wish you knew how close this man was to his daughter and how much of an effort he used to put toward her and helping her with her early learning (letters, numbers, colors....etc.).

A couple of other things that made me angry with H. Today is D3's mini-conference at school. Now why can't H be there? He told me that he can't get off work. He can get off work early to go out drinking, but not to go to his D3's first conference? The other thing is that D3 got something called The Sharing Bag at school for her first day in the new room. I told her to ask H to help her get 5 things to put in in. The idea was that he could help her.....ask her questions about things she might want to put in it....pictures, a game she likes....etc. He kept putting it off and putting it off. Hopefully he got up this morning and did it. He told her....Well I don't know what you want honey, you find something. WTF??? Help her out.
