2 hours

That's how long DD got to spend with her daddy for Christmas.  She was very huggy and clingy with him and she obviously missed him.  He obviously missed her, but 2 hours was all he chose to spend.

He changed our agreed time from 10-10:30 to noon.  And when he got here, he says he has to work tonite.  I said nothing.  I am just happy to have her home with me.

No word on when he'll see her again, but we did discuss the weekend before her birthday which is the 14th.  I guess that's when he'll see her next, and probably for just a few hours again.

He keeps saying when he gets settled and gets this job he keeps talking about, he'll start do his every other week. 

We'll see.

That's so sad for your DD. I really hoped he'd step it up.

That's too bad he didn't spend more time.  I get that he had to work and maybe wanted some sleep but 2 hours really isn't that much.  Not to post hijack but BM on my end was supposed to have SS on Christmas at 11am and texted my H on Christmas Eve asking if we could switch and have SS until tonight.  No problem, but it wasn't a switch....we just got him Christmas Day and didn't have to swap any days.  Being with the kids on Christmas Day is so fun...oh well their loss that they chose not to.

BM here was supposed the keep SS until the 28 th and then she said she was going "out of town" so she was going to drop him off Christmas Day at 2. Then Christmas Eve AM she asking if she could bring him back then. WTH is wrong with these parents?

I don't get any of these parents... Christmas is so important to me - I would never just give it up.

Glad you got her home with you and she got to see her dad, even if just for a bit.

At least she got to see him for a little while.  

If it's important to you, you'll find a way. If it's not, you'll find an excuse. 50 Photobucket  photo d385b8da-3cb6-4dcc-8bf4-987b063f8fe8_zps2c53a309.jpg http://www.wendilea.origamiowl.com

True Wendi.  At least he made the drive and bothered to do it.
