We are still waiting for the final papers from the lawyers on giving up custody of SD14. I wish there was a way to make this go faster. If she fights this DH is going to go for full Custody of both kids. I don't want him to, because I don't want to spend that kind of money. He will pay for it, but then complain for months that his savings is depleted. Also, if we win which we could, do we really want an angry 14 year old in the house daily. 50/50 is hard enough.

Well BM served us this morning seeking to change the CO of SD14. 8:00 AM and the Sheriff's dept was in the driveway. Told him we were expecting it. SD14 announced that she no longer wanted to live here. He told me his own kids put him through the same thing. He stopped fighting it and now no longer sees his kids. Told me to tell DH you can keep fighting, but in the end, it won't matter. His comment as let her live with mom and when she cries to come back in a month, tell her no "she made this bed, go lie in it". I agree with him.

Last week I sent a letter to BM. In 5 years I have only had to communicate with her 3 times. That was limited to receiving medicine and small talk. She has started to undermine my husband with the kids and telling them to keep secrets from their Dad. I sent the following letter over to her and she blasted DH with Voicemails and an email and then nothing since. SD14 announced over the weekend that she no longer was going to live here and there was nothing that DH could do about it. The kids left on Monday for their week with their mom.

Well it was a great week with the kids. No major skirmishes after SD13 mouth off. All was good until DH and I went out on Saturday night and SS11 dropped a bomb on my son and asked him not to tell me or his dad or he won't be able to go to his mom's house anymore. Well my son told me on Sunday on his way to his Religous Ed class. Ironic... He looked so panicked to tell me. I told him it was okay and he should never keep secrets from me. I have been saying that since the kid was a baby.
