I want to move
Or something... I don't like it when logan isn't here... I get blahs... I found myself very bored yesterday... I didn't like it. There were plenty of things to do, but none that I wanted to; ie clean my house... so I did it today. BLAH. I was so glad when logan came home. I just want to UGH. So my poor child tells me that his father tells him "are you a boy or a girl" Logan says "a boy" his father "boys need to live with boys and girls live with girls" OMG!!! Logan cried to me saying Mom I don't want to have to make this decision. It's too hard. I said oh baby don't you worry you do NOT have to make this decision at all that is what I am here for. I told him I'm sorry his father is putting this adult weight on him, but that I am here to take that weight off of him. We hugged. He smiled. All is better in Logan's world. He is glad to be home. OMG he told me that he ate corndogs and drank root beer all week except for the one time he had pizza and the one dr pepper he drank. He took one bath and changed his clothes ones. He fell days ago scaping his knee and came home in the same wripped jeans. Logan says that his dad was proud of him for handling it like a man. WHAT? He's 8. Logan said his dad wasn't even mad about him tearing his jeans... I thought of course not he doesn't have to worry about buying more! I have to keep myself in check because Ralph seems to be focused on when Logan turns 12 he gets to pick where he lives and apparently he is okay with trying to coax him now by telling him boys live with boys. I have to remind myself that there is no way Logan would want to leave his life and settle for a part time parent all of the time... I get leary that Ralph is going to try something... I just don't trust him and he has expendable money. He lives off his parents and girlfriend and lawyer... apparently he just moves between the three homes so no rent he has his car payment, insurance, cell phone and what else of yeah DRUGS! he can't afford a home because he has DRUGS! God is testing me I know he is. I shall pray Ralph gets better... I'm hungry HA there's something random for ya ;+)

That sucks! Did Logan say that was fun to eat corn dogs all week? Jason wouldn't like it. Kids are smart and recognize bullshit and are comfortable with rules.... Nothing you don't know, just reminding you that good parenting wins over corn dogs.
ReplyDeleteLogan was complaining about it. He told me that he wanted some water and real food!!! Then of course he told me about a 1000 times what a wonderful mom I am. We talked about how some kids want to move with the other parent because the parent they live with disciplines them and how that is not a reason to want to move. Logan told me "I know" parents don't like to do that, but sometimes it is necessary.
DeleteLogan told me that if he had parents like Doogie; i.e. lazy crappy parents that don't do anything with you and don't provide discipline he would run away to find responsible parents. LOL he's awesome
DeleteI agree with Tia, also when Logan gets to be 12 he will understand what his dad is really like. Don't worry your a great mom and no judge would allow Logan to move in with Ralph.. I don't know what Ralph is thinking just because the child turns a certain age doesn't automatcally grant him the choice of where he gets to live.. The judge makes the best choice for the child.
ReplyDeleteAwe I totally typed a response and apparently didn't hit publish... In a nutshell... Logan doesn't want to hurt his dad's feelings cause he doesn't want to live with him. That is why he was crying. I told him not to worry, I am here to make adult decisions for him and that I will always do what is in his best interest. He said thank you, you're the best!
