Journaling:

Today W pulled a stunt with the kids. Left a message on the answering machine at home saying that she wanted to start dropping the kids off with me at 3PM on Sundays instead of the usual 10AM so that I can attend mass with the kids.

I called her cell as soon as I got the message late last night. She didn't pick up so I left a message for her to call me. I told her that it wasn't acceptable to change the normal routine without agreement from both sides. I also told her that our kids (or at the very least the one who has had First Communion) are required to attend mass. She was welcome to have them attend services at her church, but they will still be attending mass with me each week regardless.

She waited until she was driving to her service this morning at 9AM to tell me that what I said did not fit in to her schedule. I told her to quit playing games, because I would play much harder than she. I demanded that she bring the kids home so that we could attend mass. She refused, then finally compromised to say I could pick the kids up at her church in time to go to the last mass at noon.

I told her how what she did is just more petty BS from her. I also reminded her that we agreed to raise the kids catholic (I would have never gotten married if she had not agreed to this). She said that "our kids are being raised to love God". I told her yes, but they are also being raised catholic.

I don't know if there are any signed documents at the diocese that state that. I wonder if it can be legally binding if so.
