K and 3

Lane and Alex have been in school for one week.  
They both love school this year and it is exciting to have a kindergardener and two third graders 
Gabriel hasn't gone to school yet since he returned from the hospital on Tuesday.  He says that he wants to go back and wants to meet his new teachers and friends. 


They will all take the bus this year.  Even though it's more challenging to get them up earlier, it's much easier to walk them to the bus in the morning.  There are no arguments about getting in the car, they just walk up the bus steps and wave good bye.

Wow. You're an asshole

You're an asshole when.... Your 9 year old nephew is fighting for his life in the ICU and you're busy taking selfies at the dentist.  You don't bother to mention his battle. You don't care - why? Because you're an asshole. Yes Erin, that's you.  The selfish bitch that we all know you are and I'm calling you out on it in my blog.  Few people are fooled by you.  If you change and give two shits about your biological family, I will eat my words. But really, if someone is unable to do something for you, you don't reach out to them. 
I'm the one who drove with my three young children when you were very ill.  I cleaned your house full of dog feces and maggots.  I loved planning a shower and bachelorette party for you.  I didn't love when you called me selfish and kicked me out of your wedding as I sat in an ER alone, right before having surgery. 
I did that because you are my sister.  You always will be.  I will also call you out when you're a selfish asshole.  
Gabriel will continue to battle.  And unless you step up to the plate, these three gorgeous children of mine will never know who you are.  Because someone who lies about me having gonnerhea and whatever filth you said, doesn't deserve them.
