Pre-K Graduation Mood
Friday, June 12, 2009 | A General Update story

Saw stbx for the first time in many months today. Our daughter graduated from Kindergarten this morning, but I had to go to radiation and missed it. I did stop by before to see her, give her roses, and congratulate her. Oh and stick his mail in her cubby.

This afternoon, my son "graduated" from Pre-K. It was a Grease-themed celebration-the boys in white T-shirts and jeans, the girls with scarves around their necks. Arthur (TehBoss), my godmother, and I arrived before his parents and him. His parents sat in the same row as my godmother and for some reason HE sat next to me and Arthur. (Arthur barely looked at him.) 

Theo (my youngest) was first in the procession. Much pomp and circumstance. Giggle. Yes, they did play that. He went a bit off script though and ran out of line and over to me at first sight.

Fast forward - just received an email from stbx. My quick exit stategy worked (his weekend with the kids), he senses Arthur is disappointed in him (ya think?), and a P.S. about how great my new boobs look.

WTF?

    Congrats to the kids. Sounds like you handled both situations really well. I hope to get there soon. I still get myself so upset. I am so glad you are taking care of yourself. Hugs

    OMG....typical male. My X did that the other day, he came over to talk to the kids and then later sent me a text message saying he was sorry but he still thought I was HOT...Good God!!!!

    As bad as it is to have them make the snarky sexual innuendo, it is worse when they don't want you at all. You
    handled it all wonderfully!

    Wow a big day in the life of Nova and family. Congrats all the way around. I am so proud of you and nice boobs.... What an ass!!! Mine has told me before how nice I looked in a sweater, I just looked at him and thought, what an ass. You are a class act all the way my dear.

    To me, the stupid stbx stuff is the least important part of this tale. How wonderful that the new healthy nova got to share some great milestones with her wonderful children. Yay for nova! This makes me happy!

    Kids! These milestones and the everyday hugs and kisses make life worth living. I don't understand the "Hey I'm fucking up my life, yours and the kids, but you look hot" way of the thinking. Don't want to either.

    Squeeze those kiddos proud mama!

    Kids are where it's at. Ex's are not. Purplefinch is so right. Congratulations to you and your little ones!
