XXX:I will be picking up the kids at 2:30 on Saturday. So that they can go to their cousin's BD party. Please have them home by then. I will bring them home after so they can have the rest of the evening with you.
Me:XXX...Saturday is my only full day with them. She has lacrosse practice in the afternoon. I do not wish to lose that time with them. However, if u wish to give some time back to me on Sunday...eg...to let D6 go to her teammates BD party (which she refused), let me know
XXX: Fine..you can bring D6 2 the Pavarotti's party after and i will bring S8. 4 the record I have had to make many concessions on Sundays for your family (not true). U have 2b more flexible (????????)
Me:It's the other way around. I will completely work with u if u will show me the same respect. I will take them to the two parties...12-4 and have them back to u for dinner...I will have the kids at the house for u at 2:30 if u will return them similarly. let me know
XXX:No. S8 will go with me 2 the Pavarotti's. You can meet us there with S6
Me: No...that's not a fair equal compromise. I'm sorry...figure out something fair
XXX: What compromise have u made 4 me? I have apoken 2 my atty and you have no right 2 withhold the kids from my family on birthdays (notice the plural...never happened). I don't do it 2 you (lie..she withheld them on several religious holidays) and that is it. I don't have 2 compromise any further.
Me: I am not withholding them ...I am asking you to return equitable time. This is an easy compromise XXX...then I'll take kids Sunday AM..to first BD and u take them to Pavarotti's. That's easy.
Am I out of line here? Would this be...as my atty says..."nitpicking".
