Hello Friends, Happy Valentine's Day

Things are good these days. The Baronette ( Jodi ), came over Sunday and met my girls. We had a super nice time. She is so in tune with kids. She has lots of practice. She has 4 great kids of her own.
We listened to music, talked subjects, ate dinner together, talked about school, and other things.
Amy, my 6 year old especially liked Jodi. The practiced gymnastic style stuff and played. Amy gushed over Jodi, trying to constantly bring new things for Jodi to experience. Amy got her hair done up in braids.
Now more than ever I look forward to a lot of experiences yet to come. My mind reals with the possibilities.

The ex still looms. I'm trying to be a better more patient dad these days. I hope the daughters will see this and elect to tell their mom they want to keep the existing custody situation. The girls are doing better in school it seems. I took them out to eat Saturday night, and Sunday we went roller skating.

I wish the ex's hardshell un-candy like coating cracks and she comes to understand that a dad can never be the same role model to his daughters as the mom is. Men are from mars...yadda,yadda,yadda.
The girls know they can call their mom anytime to talk girl things. The ex seems to believe I should be like a woman and replace her when the girls are with me. She tells me "I just don't get it". I think this statement is ironic coming from her.

I'm girding for the fight, strengthening my battlements. My coffers are full. I won't fall easy. It's a shame we can't come to terms.

That's it for now. I've got to get some sleep. I'll talk at cha' later,

The Blue Baron
