I tried to talk to DH about how he plans on handling this weekend with the SKIDS and if they start to get out of control. He totally shut me down. He wants zero input from me. Not only that, but apparently I am not even to be included in the planning. How dare I even ask.

I tried to talk to him about how I feel completely disabled by his belief that I am "too stern." Apparently he has nothing to say to that, because he just walked out of the room.

It's so stupid that I have this yucky dread feeling in my stomach about both of the SKIDS coming this weekend. It's been building all week.

I wish it didn't have to be this way.

I used to have such high hopes about us becoming a family. Unfortunately, too much has happened to destroy those hopes.

Instead of functioning on hope, I'm functioning on prayers:

I am praying that BM didn't jack them up on lies as a special gift to us. You know, just to ensure we have a really, super fantastic weekend.

Taking BS16 on a mini-vaca...

for the holiday.

He and I are going out to the my dads lake house. My son loves, loves, loves to fish and swim. Plus, there are always so many kids out there that he has a total blast!

I will work on some homework and probably drive around the park in the golf cart - visiting with everyone that I haven't seen since last summer. Smile

Bad mannered SKIDS in a new neighborhood looking for friends...

Ok, ST's. I was making a post on someone else's blog, and it reminded me of a dilemma I have:

My DH and I have just moved into our new home. It's a nice neighborhood. There are some children in the subdivision that are around the SKIDS ages (10).

My DH is all excited, because he feels that his kids can make friends while they are here.

So...

SS10 left his soccer shin guards out in the vestibule. He was asked to pick them up, he did not. DH took him back to BM on Sunday, yet those soccer shin guards were still laying in the vestibule as of this morning. DH should have picked them up if he wasn't going to force his son to clean up after himself. Why should I have to keep walking around them? Why I should I have to look at them laying in the vestibule? Even worse, why should I be the one to have pick them up to put them away?

So I threw them out. }:)

SS comes tomorrow...

Yuck. I'll be on here to vent about the visit and whatever happens. Just so that I don't say it to DH. When I attack DH about stuff with the SKIDS, I just tear him down as a father. It's so counter-productive. I don't do it often anymore, but when I do, it's bad.

Only the SS is coming - so it will be another *better* weekend with just one of the SKIDS. DH is a much more effective parent when it's just the one of them. I'm hoping he will continue to employ his new parenting skills. DH is gaining more and more confidence as a parent. It's a good thing.
