Tomorrow is the day.... Mood
Sunday, November 1, 2009 | An Anxious story
So, tomorrow is the day that Robin gets out of jail. She has been writing and threatening to take the girls when she gets out. The lawyer said that she has no rights to the girls at all, so all we have to do is call the police if she tries to come near us. So, Tim and I decided that we would take the girls out of school this coming week and would take them to my mom's house. My mom lives out of town and in the middle of nowhere. Robin would never know where she lives. So, we talked with the school, who has been very cooperative. The principal said she would talk with the teachers and send all of their work home with them on Friday. Haley's teacher did, but Sonya's did not. We purposely did nto mention to the girls that she is getting out becasue we want to shelter them from this.They ahve lived their entire lives up to this point in fear of their mom. I did not want to further that fear. Well, Frances has started. She does not want us to take them to my mom's house. She does not knwo where my mom lives and that makes her nervous. She has been trying to convince me that Robin will not try anything. I dunno. She is still insistant that she will get the girls back. I mean, she has been nice about it, but she has been trying to prepare for a home inspection. I tried to tell her thta they will not be inspecting her house as she is out of the picture now as far as custody of the girls is concerned. She doesnt hear what I say. She still tells the girls that they will get to live with her. Which, they do not want to happen. Anyway, they spent the night with Frances last night bc they will be gone all week. This morning. we picked them up for church and Sonya was terrified. She said that Robin is out of jail and is going to ocme get them. She was tryingto hide behind me all day long in fear that Robin would come get her. I told her that Robin does nto get out until tomorrow, but she did not beleive me. She said that grandma told her today. So, I just held her close all day and kept assuring her that it would be tomorrow and that we would be gone when she gets out of jail. Well, tonight, Frances wanted the girls to stay with her. I feel bad about this, but I have to do what I feel is right. So, Frances had been insisting that she is sending the girls to school tomorrow and that they need not go to my mom's. I told her that she does nto make the decisions. I made arrangements for the girls to stay with a friendof mine until I get off work. Her kids and mine play together alot and we attend church together. So, I toldFrancesa nd she was disappointed. She had planned on making cupcakes with them. I feel awful about it. I really do, but I didn't feel like they were safe there. She said that the girls were crying to go to my friend's house. She didn't argue about it. She was clearly upset, but said that they could if it is what they want. Not that she had a choice. So, they get to rebecca's and Haley started to tell Rebecca, my friend, that she is scared that Robin is going to come and get them. Frances continued to tell them that Robin is out of jail, despite the conversation I had with ehr about not telling the girls that. Also, in an attempt to get them to not want to go to rebecca's, she told them that Robin is out and would find them at Rebecca's and take them. UGH! Haley was scared to death! Kevin, Rebecca's husband, talked with her and Sonya and assured them that he would keep them safe and I talked to them and assured them the same. I figured there would be major problems at bed time, but there wasnt. Rebecca texted me pics of them sleeping. Im hoping there arent many problems this next week. Tim will be at our house incase Robin tries to come over. HE can call the police. He will be working overnights, tho. I dunno. Im just frustrated with this whole mess. I was Frances to just stop being Frances for a few days. give me a rest. She calls me, literally, 20 times a day just to say the same things over and over again and it is so difficult to end a conversation with her! If I dont asnwer, she will continuously call until I do and will fill up my voicemail. telling her to stop does not work. Ugh. Anyway, just wanted to keep everyone updated. Pls, continue to pray. Thanks much!
