I have a feeling this will be an ongoing saga in our life...it already has been for the last year.

In 2010, both skids were in gymnastics classes. They loved it. Then summer rolled around and the schedule changes to 2 times a week rather than once, so BM said she didn't want to do that, that it was too much obligation for the kids (we all know this was really just too much obligation for BM. The skids would love to go 2x's a week!).

So we've agreed to have a meeting next week with BM. And DH and BM had a "good" conversation the other night. Then DH and I had a conversation where we got a few things out that we both needed to say about everything. DH is still gone for work and he comes back really late tonight. So after all of that, I felt like I should try to work and be more cooperative about BM things.

I started a new job so I don’t have as much time for Steptalk – which is good and bad of course Thankfully I haven’t had a ton to vent about....until today!

I love how BM has no qualms about admitting openly that she can’t stand having to parent for longer than a week at a time.

I've spoken alot about our predicament with a few of my close coworkers -- specifically how SD6 is not our child, we're "obligated" by BM's entitled attitude to continue taking her and DH doesn't necessarily want SD6 completely out of our lives (well I don't either) but realizes we need to stop this scheduled visitation thing with her since she has biological parents in the picture.
