So little holiday update as the kids go back tomorrow...
W wanted to the kids a bit longer on Christmas Eve as the schedule would normally have me picking them up at 10am. She wanted to do the German tradition of the 24th rather than see them on Christmas Day. They came to me just before bedtime on the 24th so I had them for Santa stockings in the morning. When W dropped them off, she couldn't take her eyes of the outside Christmas lights my dad and I put up. She was looking half decent with the 600 dollar ear rings I bought her a few years ago for her birthday. However, was wearing her bright red rubber farm type boots....
She also had a Christmas card for my Dad in the kids things with some pictures of the kids.... something that surprised both my Dad and me as she knows my Dad and I have a very open relationship and he is often my sounding board.
Then on the flip side, she didn't want to speak or see the kids on Christmas Day... As usual none of this makes any sense as she also shared on FB a video about family being the most important thing at Christmas (she is still friends with my Dad on FB)
Christmas Day was good fun with the kids and Dad, plenty of presents for the kids, good food and wine with Dad. The last few days we went out with the kids as S7 got a skateboard and he wanted to be out on it. Today, the kids and I went for a nice walk in the forest and played at the play area.
Kids go back to W tomorrow but haven't heard a word from her yet.... Then I'm off to the piano store to sell the piano I bought her last year. Then am looking to go to a ski resort in the Alps for New Years Eve, want to go start the New Year somewhere else....
