[QUOTE="Payla, post: 572082, member: 15160"] Thank you Witsend. She was fine and happy to see him. She did notice the tension between us but it was not a huge deal. I think unfortunately she is used to the theme of him being a problem because her mother has argued with him over the phone for years over lack of child support. I am not going to go to the lengths I did this Christmas for him to see her anymore. It is normal for her to only see him occasionally so its not like she is pining for him; she has a wonderful home with her Mom and grandparents in another state and is a very happy well adjusted child. I'm starting to see that this is one more area of his life where he depends on me to facilitate seeing her. Maybe if he feels the pain of not seeing her if he try to figure out how to do it himself. (history says no). I love her dearly but I not only had to put up with him, I had to do everything he would have done with her like sledding, skating, playing etc... While it was great making memories with her I was exhausted! I already told my husband we are going away next Christmas, it was just too much. [/QUOTE]
