no matter WHAT Taz pulls.


Just a little update of "stuff".


Ave was in a variety show for school tonite. SO great. They did "Surfin' USA" & the audience LOVED it. They were TOO darn cute.

You are so freakin resilient - Ave is a lucky girl to have that in her Mom. Glad she made everyone including herself proud tonight. You guys sooo deserve that.
sending beams of pride for awesome rallying back after what must have been a blow to your spirit yesterday...

Wow - that is a great update and especially in light of what you had to deal with this week.

I couldn't help but think that it is not your problem to keep telling Taz to go - I would tell him once and then no more - but I guess you know it means a lot to Avery - although it is good she can see he went somewhere else and that you tried. I was just wondering if you could work to minimize contact with him? But you probably know best - and you are certainly doing the best you can - but maybe that is something to ask the psych - what to do now going forward? AVE is lucky to have a great mom! The cop/water polo coach sounds wonderful - how great he can be the positive role model that Ave needs!! And I think it is great that LB was there too with his kid. And EH is calling - good stuff!

It sounds like you really needed some good things like this to help from the overload of Taz in court.

That is one great update. Taz is so moronic. I agree with west that you should let him know through e-mail and phone (or vm) only ONE TIME about any event. He is supposed to repsond to them saying he got the message. He should note it down in his calender. If he wants he will come. Ave doesnt have to call him and say "sorry he couldnt show up.." You should teach her that. She can call him two or three days before and let him know and tell him she is expecting him there.. Rest is upto him. His loss if he cant see her on stage.


If I were you, I would tell Ave. that dad may

I know - we are all always rooting for LB!!!! And then poor Rebecca has to come back and tell us why - and then we understand for a bit - but then she posts another update like this and then we root for him again. I think we all just root for him anyway! He sounds so nice!!

I think the fact that she emails him about events and reminds him the day before is documentation that she is in no way trying to keep him from her. It is then his choice to ignore those special days and it looks bad for him. The more she does this the better she looks in my opinion. Just my two cents.
I do know how frustrating it can be to have him just ignore it over and over again but it will be hard for him to keep singing that tune about her sabotaging their relationship and keeping avery from him if she has all of these informative emails and reminders trying to get him to participate in their little girl's life only to have him not show up.
