I am journaling and will try to keep this short.
Saturday, Sunday and Monday were all pretty cordial days with the W.
When I arrived home from work yesterday I could see in her face that she was in an angry mood again.
My D17 shared with me after dinner that her mother was not happy with her.
It started in the morning after I left for work because my W was angry that our Bishop at church had asked to visit with her on Wed. She went on about going to church for the past 15 years and never being asked to visit but now that she is in this situation he wants to meet with her. My daughter muttered under her breath that she had not attended for the past 15 years, but just the last year. This sent the W into a tirade as this is one point that she has pointed out that I did not go to church until recently.

The real issue came a few moments later as the W spoke to my D17 about finding a 2 bedroom place with a bedroom big enough for 2 beds. (for both of my daughters) My D17 mentioned that she should not worry about it to much as she would not be staying there much as she plans to live with me. She will be of age to make this decision by the time any D takes place. My W then blamed me for manipulating her, influencing her and doing whatever to ruin their relationship. My D17 calmly explained this was not true and that she was old enough to make decisions and research information to make the decisions best for herself.
This morning the W continued on this topic with my D17. My D17 called me at lunch as she is not holding up well emotionally with all of this and is sad and conflicted and just wants to run away.
My heart breaks as I am not sure what to do to stop the pain that my babies are enduring right now.
I can only listen and hold them and pray that my W can hurry forward and provide us all some space and hopefully find the peace she is seeking before permanent damage is done to relationships.
