So BM2 is having the best/worst breakdown ever! DH was exchanging emails with her tonight and made it clear she was funny and insane. Kids were picked up today from school for the weekend with DH. He was in car and was told by aid to come to office which he did. Kids were both in there, looking sheepish but came with him. Apparently BM2 did not want him to take kids home with him AND the Valentine's boxes they made with BM2 and the treats they received. Apparently BM2 gave school the go ahead to send kids home with DH but their treats and boxes. Apparently kids and school were told to sit in office til BM2's mom showed up to collect goodies and boxes and kids were to go with DH. DH was disgusted and took kids home. Grans never came. BM2 started to send emails all damn night freaking out. Ranging from, "Grams was stuck in traffic, you left before she could collect the children's things please please meet up with her to give them to her....." NO! Then her sister was willing to come to our home to pick up items, what the hell? To "You will have access to the first names of the children's classmates, I do not allow you to this information, it is private only for me. All classmates and their parents have heard about you and your Steplady." To the best one yet, "Each year the children and I spend hours looking at the cards and eating the candy, you are murdering their souls by denying them this tradition!" Seriously wish I was kidding people! And then there was the "Your wife better not have her mitts on that candy and that baby of hers does not need to paw at their boxes and treats!" UHM the baby of mine is in school herself and took her own box and got her own treats. I do not eat junk and my bd is very limited on any junk herself. BM2 knows this. DH let her know that she can buy discount candy tomorrow and Sunday before the kids come home if it is the sweets she is worried about. Their boxes were pitiful BM2 art projects covered with hot glue and aluminum foil. DH entitled and has copy of class roster if he really wanted to snoop. They are free to take candy and boxes home to BM2 on Sunday if they like. Other than that, my DH actually took initiative and did a craft with them lame as it was, he helped them glue the cards in a heart shape and then cut out the middle, the class picture went in the middle and they got hung up in SKs rooms. I think that was nice on his part. My DH let her know she was the butt of the joke and that kids were having fun and enjoying THEIR cards and treats with out her directing things. I was busy all day, and mostly disengaged from BM2 but not kids. I made a nice meal and my dd skyped with her dad and then my mom. We made cards for my dear sister and my niece. DH did not offer to take me away on trip and I did not ask, I was not overwhelmed by DH pawing me or being crude. We gave cards and ate all together. I rubbed DH back and kids are all asleep. I am content.
