Talked with mom today. She told W there is no more to talk about and to stop rehashing all the old stuff. W complained that S16 hates her because I told him about the A. So I guess her actually having one and leaving us isn't the problem, just me telling him! Whatever.

W called today despite my request to only email. She was asking my plans for the weekend since she has Sunday off. I guess she doesn't expect that I would want to spend a weekend with my boys. We are heading to a BIL's house for a family 4th of July party. We'll be spending the night and be back sometime on Sunday. I told her I'd text when we know the plans. She'd had them a lot and there still isn't a set schedule.

Then she asked about a facebook post I made this morning.

Quote:
For parents and parental figures, I thought I would share a story I just heard about a mother bird and a nest of new chicks.

One day on a farm, a barn caught fire. Inside the barn, the mother bird covered the chicks with her wings. When the firefighters put out the fire and began checking out the barn, they were surprised at what they found. The mother bird had sheltered the baby chicks under her wings. She was burned to death, but the little baby chicks were still alive, safe from harm under the mother bird’s wings. She gave her babies refuge until the disaster passed. What a dramatic picture of sacrificial love!


This came from a devotional I early read this morning. She asked if it was a dig toward her. I guess I can see how she would read it but honestly I was thinking only about myself as a parent and what I must do for my children. This I told her. She then went on to comment how she really liked all of my other facebook posts as of late. These other posts have been Christian based images with my comments being about my PMA and GAL. Not sure why she had to tell me this. Shouldn't read into it I know but I am curious.
