Donna, I totally understand what you mean about having a hard time. Heck, when xH and OW were playing happy family with their kids, xH was telling me about how D4 (when she was potty training) kept having to use the potty at the pool that summer. I said "Oh that must have been hard to pull D6 out of the pool each time to take D4 potty". He looked ashamed and I said "You didn't take her out of the pool, did you? You let OW watch D6 while you took D4 potty?". He was busted. I was fuming!!! And that was just a tiny thing compared to what you and many others have to deal with!
Oh and I guarantee your OW's xH is the same way. OW's H said he came home one day and his daughter said "Daddy! I finally went down the waterslide!" OW's H said "Wow. You've never done that before!" and his daughter said "Well, the only reason that I did it was 'cuz Mr ____ (my xH) caught me at the bottom!" That crushed him.
Olive is right though. Nothing can shake our MOM status. Nothing.
JeffSTL, how was that snow this morning!!??? I am in my office so can't see, but I am assuming its already gone.
