Here's how pick up went today:
We were at small group (gets out at 8:30) and DH left to go to our house to drop SD off to BM and GBM. It was raining so he invited them into the living room. He was changing SD out of her church dress (Clothes never come back... you know the story) and into their clothes and they were saying to just send her home as is. DH (thankfully) insisted on changing her clothes. They noticed her other clothes (I had folded them and put them on the table to go upstairs before we left. It may or may not have been on purpose) and BM noticed SD's new shoes (Light up pink and white sneakers that light up. $5 at Walmart). Of course, being a BM, she tried to ruin it. They were size 12 and BM started freaking out that they were the wrong size.
"She's a 13 1/2 you idiot!"
"Um, the shoes you sent her in are a 12."
"NO! They are a 13 and I need to buy her the next size up!"
DH picked up SD's shoe, handed it upside down to BM and pointed at the very clear "12" on the bottom. She flipped it and looked at the inside saying it said 13 1/2 on the inside. GBM grabbed the shoe and looked.
"BM... I don't know what you're on but it says 12 USA. There isn't a 13 anywhere on here."
Then, GBM was complaining because CPS was at their house for an hour today. BM chimed in "They SAID that they were here yesterday." DH replied that yeah, they had been. BM continued "Well did they interview SD? They aren't allowed to interview SD without my permission." "No, they didn't interview her, but just so you know they aren't allowed to interview her without her parent's permission, and while YOU may think I am a glorified babysitter, I AM SD's biological and legal father." BM I'm sure had a witty come back to this but SD jumped on our couch to grab a picture she'd colored at church. BM yelled at her, "GET DOWN BEFORE I BEAT YOUR ASS."
Seriously. Who talks to their three year old like that?? BM told SD to come on, it was time to go home. SD started crying and saying she didn't want to go home, she wanted to stay at "Our last name" Castle. DH told BM never to speak to any of his daughters like that in his house again.
She grabbed SD and left with GBM. DH came back to church to pick me up. He's going in the morning to file for emergency custody.
Pray.
