Thanks Rose.
It's too the point now with her that even MY MOM wants to let her have it. i just can't stand the thought of her playing "doting grandma" with my kids when she in all reality can't even be bothered with them because she's just "too busy".
Oh Dad's girlfriend DID say something. I believe it was along the lines of "do you think I give a ****? Do you think I hate you or something? I'd think very little of you if you didn't attend since he was your children's father."
