So my D6 and I have been invited to a teapart for our Girl Scouting adventures. This will be a lot of fun for her and hopefully for me as well.

This is my week with the kids. So, for my s9, I have arranged a play date for the 2 hours we will be occupied with our tea party.

I put this on the family calendar.

My w emails and asks if she wants me to watch S9 for this event.

Is this her way of reaching out, is this some sort of olive branch? I think I am reading more into it than I should?

On one hand, being so distant from her is truly awful, on the other hand, she is divorcing me, leaving me for the A/P and blown up our family.

What say you wise DB concil? Accept or politely decline?

My immediate idea was this email:

Dear W

Thank you for offering to watch S9 during this teaparty event. I really appreciate it, however, I have already made plans for S9 to have a play date.

Thanks again,

X
