The girls had their annual school concert. They sang a few songs with their classmates. Their "other Mom" did not show up. She has actually only attended ONE thing they had for school, which was the concert last Christmas. The girls cried a lot when we got home. They called her and asked where she was. She told them she was busy working. Then told Gerry she was busy moving to her new duplex. Her other ex (the dad of her older son-yes another kid) sh0wed up though with Joe (anika and jasmines brother by the "other mother" and Alberto). It was great to see Joe, Albert and his two other kids (with yet another mother). I tell you, what is really going on in society?!
I guess the morning after pill was not developed until after 2000?!
Anyhow, the show was wonderful. The girls looked adorable in their dresses and in their big smiles up on stage. I love the girls so much. I just wished that someone so heartless would not continue to tell them she will show up and then not show up.
I am always cleaning up tears around here, along with their father.
After watching Charlie Brown Christmas Specials, eating popcorn and drinking hot chocolate, the kids temporarily forgot about their absentee "other Mother". They are as blessed to have me, as I am to have them.
