This is the message that I E-mailed back:

"I can understand your disappointment about not being with the kids earlier on
Mother's Day. I'm sure I would have felt the same had the situation been
reversed. Please don't hesitate in the future to ask me to change our
arrangement for special occasions like this. I will always work with you in
good faith. As for Memorial Day, I'm totally fine with you keeping the kids for
the weekend. Sounds like you've made nice plans, I hope you all have a good
time."

I think it was a good response. Thanks futureunknown! I do think I'm detatching some!
