Ugh! Exes...

I'm so ready for this weekend to be over.  Jesse's sister is getting married today.  I asked him back in January, when I learned Emily would be the flower girl, if it would be possible for me to come and see her dressed up in her flower girl dress.  He said, yes and we'd figure it out.

A few weeks ago, our babysitter had to go to a funeral, so his mom watched Emily during the day.  I went to pick her up from their house.  While I was there, his sister getting married was there and she said I could come to the house to see Emily.  I thought that was a dumb idea for two reasons, 1) the whole point would be for me to see Emily dressed and ready, would she really be ready at the house and 2) she really wanted me to come to the house?!  My plan was to come to the hall, call Jesse, have him bring her out and I'm on my way... That was what I was thinking.

When Jesse came to pick up Emily on Thursday morning, he dropped the bomb that I wasn't welcome at the wedding.  I could still come to the house.  Well, my cousin's baby shower was today and I said I was disappointed, but if SOMEONE could tell me a time she would be dressed and ready, I'd come to the house.  I texted all through the day, he never had an answer other than her hair was getting done at 12:30.  Okay.  But when would she be DRESSED and READY?  I kept texting him about how dumb it was that he wouldn't work with me and he said he was, I could come to the house.  Finally, I just said, I want to see her, put yourself in my shoes, if my sister were getting married, you wouldn't want to see her dressed up, get a picture with her and show her that we are all adults who can come together for her.  The final thing I texted was Am I still picking Emily up after dinner?  The only reason I offered was to allow you and your family time to enjoy yourselves and not worry about getting Emily to bed.  He finally texted back, Meet me in the parking lot at 3:20.  I'll bring her out after pictures.

So, I went and saw her.  I'll be going in a bit to go get her for the night.  It just really pisses me off that it turned into a knock-down, drag-out day of fighting.  I ultimately got to see Em, but it's so annoying having to share your most prized possession with someone who doesn't like to work with you!  Ugh!
