update, got to the school saw on a billboard that Back to school night was yesterday, was kind of upset I was not invited.
W sent text that W & D were at coffee shop, & that W got me coffee.
W arrived at school I met her, said hi to D talked and walked toward her morning line up group. W and I small talked, mainly about the kids, parents. (D has been with same group of kids since Kinder)
Talked about how while D was away these past two weeks the lady watching her had no respect for W's wishes, Lady shaved D's legs (D is 10) dyed her hair, talked about getting D a smart phone (everything without asking permission, of course) W was not happy, she complained for a few min (just realized I didn't validate but Idk that I had to?) I wanted to laugh. Mainly because none of this would've happened had I been "in control" meaning, D would've stayed with us for the remainder of the summer and no "boundaries" (my Wife's new word) would've been crossed.
I did ask W if there was a reason why I was not invited to back to school night, W gave me a look and said no. Didn't press further.
D went into school, I said thank you again to W for coffee said bye and walked away. W walked by herself a few steps behind me.
W looked amazing. I made sure I looked my best as well. She laughed a bit, I made sure I smiled.
Miss her, wish things were different. It seems to me like being Dark is not affecting W.
