The Jury Is Still Out
As for the battle of good vs. evil, okay, maybe that wasn’t quite the nicest title to use, but sometimes it feels that way. But the jury is still out on whether or not the battle was a win, lose or draw. Sadly, I truly do not believe there are any winners in this. As I have stated before, this is about the kids’ happiness.
Anyway, I was very civil on my delivery of the news. I started out by asking her if she was aware of Kenzie’s feelings, which she replied by saying she had no clue. Now, whether or not she was telling the truth at that point, I don’t know. She sure did have a good poker face on, though. So, I continued by filling her in on what Kenz has been asking me for the past 6 months and how it has become more regular, her pleas that is.
Well, I ended by offering a trial period of Kenz living with us until the end of the summer. I figure one of two things will happen at this point. One, Kenz will decide that the grass isn’t greener at my house or that she wants to stay. So, I will see what I am dealt by the end of the summer and go from there. As I stated, I would need to get her enrolled at the school near me and then get the uniforms, since her old school did not have them. But, I was very nice for a change, because usually I have to play defense. It was nice to be on the offensive for a change.
I ended by giving her time to talk it over with her husband and to think about it. I did ask her not to close her mind right off the bat because she would usually just tell me to go to hell and storm off. Who knows what will happen. She did admit, though, that she has been having trouble with them. Duh!!! After that phone call Monday, it was more then obvious.
So, for all of you following the saga and betting for or against me, all that I can ask is pray. Right now the only thing I can ask is,”Let Thy will be done.” The girls’ mom is very unpredictable so I never know what to expect. This is off the subject, but I truly believe she is bi-polar and I truly am wondering if Brit has gotten those traits as well. Anyway, I will close for now. Keep praying.

Yes, we go to church every Sunday. As for the Pastor and the youth minister, they have tried to help, but the girls' mom doesn't agree with them going there. Their mom and I divorced about 6 years ago.
