Newly separated...spouse left, 4th thread

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!

This is the E-mail that she sent back to me afterwards:

"Thank you. Here is the kid's schedule for this week (you may already know)...

Monday--D/12 piano 5:30 (this is b/c Thursday is their recital)
Tuesday--S/11 5th grade Recognition 6:30--School Gym
Thursday--D/12 piano recital 5:30--School Music Center choir room

Of course, swimming is everyday, but she'll just be able to go Wed and Fri.

If anything else comes up, I'll let you know."



Again, at least there was no cursing or capital letters and exclamation points!
