If you have read conclusion part one you would know friend was at my house and we got in another tiff or really friend felt uncomfortable and left. It made me sad she felt uncomfortable because I always made sure my house felt like a home a safe place to her and her child. I had a bed for the child, they had their own shelf in the pantry for food, I had pictures that Mom would make for me of the three of us, the two us, and baby and I all over my house, they both had toothbrushes in my bathroom, the list goes on.

The next morning after she left I texted her saying we need to talk and figure out the underline issue of why we kept arguing. The main thing she kept saying is “I just try not to upset you”. I kept telling her that her not telling me how she feels, or whats bothering her and just leaving is what upsets me. For some reason she never understood that. She said, “I don’t think its cool that you automatically assume I’m like all these other people who have screwed you over or left and not cared, I try to be there for you but you don’t let people in”. That statement is far from the truth, I let people in all the time, I’m an open book, I wear my emotions on my sleeve. She was my best friend, I told her everything. I let her help parent my stepson because sometimes it was just too emotional for me to sit alone with him and have a conversation. I went to her for an emotional breakdown when my niece and nephew went into foster care. After that something clicked inside of me telling me to be done, to cut it off because nothing is going to change, I told her to start acting like an adult, use her words.

I said my goodbyes in a not so nice way, pretty much called her every name in the book because there were a bunch of texts of her twisting things again and I was tired of it. More not so nice emails came back and forth for days. One email she wrote about the night they came back 6 months ago said, “I had no intentions of coming to your house that night until I was passing your area and I said aunty, child and dog will be the most comfortable and safest.”

After a few weeks of no communication I got a Cease & Desist letter in the mail from friend. She was claiming I was being harassing, intimidating her, her family, her daughter, her dog, and her friends and that I purposefully made false statements which is defamation of her character.

Through my entire life I’ve always loved taking photos so I was always taking photos of friend and I or friend and daughter or me and child together. I made sure the child’s parents knew what she was doing while in my care, had nice photos of her. Well, in the C&D I’m being accused of representing the child as my own which is a liable statement or as her aunty (I have only ever done aunty) without her knowledge or consent, that I never had permission to take them.  Now she’s saying “Not only do I not have any trust in your ability to appropriately care for my child, my child has now specifically said she is afraid of being alone in aunties presence, which is why child hasn't’t been left alone with aunty in the last two years, that she has been locked in dark rooms, repeatedly told she’s a bad girl and been left in time out for extended amounts of time”.

Child just turned 4 at this time, she was always a happy child at my house, hardly ever had to be put in time out. My rule was she’s in time out with the amount of how old she was. She was never locked in any room, she could open all doors in my house. I have every text message, phone call and email from the last 4 years of every time she asked me to babysit when she was working, sick or needing to go shopping or just take a shower. My big question to mom is if she really thought I was such a horrible and abusive person to her and her daughter and dog why still come to my house, or allow me at your house, or let me babysit your kid and dog? What it says to me is she’s a pathological liar.

In the end of this C&D it says, “Please note that I have a right, and obligation to protect my underage daughter from your intimidating tactics, threats of kidnapping, and social media misrepresentation and digital kidnapping.” A Cease and Desist letter is not legally binding. It is an opinion of one individual.

After I got this I freaked out and broke down crying because I just couldn't’t believe what I was reading. After everything this friend of 8 years honestly thought I was going to kidnap her child and dog, obviously she never knew me like I thought she did, because if she did, she would know I am not that kind of person, I would never hurt her like that let alone hurt her child like that. All I ever did was love her and her child.

Sorry for it being so long, I hope you enjoyed all of it. If you have any words of encouragement please let me know! Thank you for listening.
