mommy's house v. daddy's house
Not that it's a competition, but this was the BEST thing ever ...
So as many of you know, every Monday night, per our court order, ex and I both have dinner with our ds. Before I moved in with BF this past weekend ex used to come to my house and have dinner with ds and I and then ex would play with him and have him take a shower and put him to bed at my house. When I moved in with bf, ex and I talked about what would happen to our Monday night dinners. We agreed that we'd eat out so we could still do our dinners. I offered that we alternate Mondays so one Monday ds would go to my house for bed after dinner and the next to ex's. Ex said no, he didn't want him to spend the night on Monday nights. So he suggested we go out to dinner and then ds goes to his house to play for a bit and take a shower and then ex would bring him back to my house for bed. Ok, fine. We live less than a mile from each other so this is doable.
Last night was our first night doing this. We had explained it to ds (who is 5.5) and he was fine with it. Until dinner. We went over the plan again during dinner and ds was insistant that he didn't want to shower at daddy's -- he wanted to go play there but then shower at my house. Ex reminded him that he showers there all the time and what is the big deal. DS kept saying he just wants to shower at my house. Finally ex said, "Give me one good reason why." and DS looked at him and said, "Because mommy's house is just better!"
It took all I had to not start laughing.
