So we got the skids today for Christmas break. As part of the CO, FDH gets the kids for the first week of Christmas break. However, because of work and things, we are returning them to their BM on Christmas night. Now, I consider myself a realist, but for some reason, I thought that this small amount of time would be easy to deal with. Oh, how wrong I was! It seems CAB (FDH's crazy ass bitch ex) has been filling SD7's head with more nonsense about how her daddy doesn't love her b/c he moved to FL. I am not a violent person, but sometimes, I really want to slap CAB right upside the head. However, that is a story for another time. FDH had to run some errands and left yours truly with all the kids. The Skids, my BS7 and my niece were all playing in the basement when I hear my son crying. He was crying so hard that I could hear him upstairs. He comes up and tells me that SD7 told him that she doesn't want her daddy to marry me and that he is going to listen to her and move back to the same state that she lives in. My BS7 is very close to FDH. They have a great bond. And, he was upset b/c he was worried he would never see FDH again. So instead of engaging SD7, I just told him that he had nothing to worry about that FDH and I were still planning to get married and he would always be able to see him.

I was fuming by this point b/c I could hear SD7 downstairs taunting BS7. When FDH came home, I told him what had happened and he needed to talk to his daughter. I was so surprised. He took her aside and she started her whining crap. Whenever she doesn't want to do something or gets in trouble, she starts crying and trying to hide under furniture and says she is tired. That is her excuse for anything. Tonight, my FDH had enough. He said, "SD7, I am tired of this crap. This crap of I'm tired being an excuse to do whatever you want is not going to fly anymore. Stop your whining and sit down here and talk to me." SD7 still continued to cry and try to avoid talking with him but he remained firm. They had a long talk about it. And, she seemed fine after it was over. I think I have a long road with her though. She is so used to whining and getting whatever she wants. Not only does CAB and BigWeirdo buy into it, they encourage it. She is very immature for a 7 year old. But at least, I know FDH wasn't kidding when he promised me he was going to firm up with the girls. So for tonight, I am very happy with FDH. We will see how I feel at the end of this visitation.
