Mama Bear

This is it. Gloves are off and BM is in for it.

We was BM in the grocery store on Xmas eve. SD was holding my hand and I felt her grip tighten when she saw "Mommy". DH says to SD, "go say hi to mom", Sd pipes up "Hi". So Dh says "No sweety go give her a hug and kiss" so SD (three and a half years old) runs over to mom, gives her a quick kiss and hug then runs back and grabs my hand, almost breaking fingers I should add. Right infront of BMs best friends. So we chit chat alittle bit and carry on our way.

Me and SD were hanging out in the bathroom (still trying to potty train her) and she picks up a book about fetal development. This book has some really good pictures of how a baby grows in the womb, its actually called "In the Womb". She asked me if thats what my baby looks like in my belly. I showed her the picture that corresponds with my week and she says to me... "I wish I could be in your belly." I told her she was a bit too big and laughed a bit. I then told her she grew in her mommy's belly. She wrinkled her nose up and said "Oh" all dissappointed like. I changed the topic.

So Xmas comes and around noon, when all my close family were over, BM calls. My mom answered the phone and handed it to SD. SD was excited to be on the phone, then she realized who she was talking to. "I'm staying here!" she yelled at her mom twice before we could take the phone from her and lecture her about being nice. She gets back on the phone and will only say "bye" to everyone the phone got passed to except her 8 year old aunt.

I have never seen my SD act like this towards her mom. But then this is the first time I have been able to spend alot of time with her since the trial, where we lost and BM moved out of province to chase dick. Well she's back in town now. Her and her boyfriend broke up. So we are going back to court. And I gotta say... the F***ing gloves are off this time. Shes getting Mama Bear. NO ONE hurts my kids, and Munchkin has shown that she wants to be mine more then BMs.

Wow Thetis, you've really been through the ringer, haven't you? Thank Heaven she'll be back in your hometown and under your care as often as possible. Your love for this little girl is what will save her.

Maybe you can have some reconciliation with your FIL and combine legal forces in her best interest; it may not be so bad to have the grandparents take her once in a while, especially when you need a break. Either way, get a lawyer and fight for this baby's welfare. And re-read your blog entries when she drives you crazy. Wink

I pray everything works out in the best possible way for you and your family, including the little one on its way!

I'm not familiar with your story, but any kid that doesn't really want to be around her mother is def trying to tell you something....

Its not all the time. It only seems to be when I'm around. I know she loves her mom very much. She just seems to like me better. idk I'm not trying to be all high on my self but me and Munchkin have a really good relationship (when we get to see eachother)
