I'm in a mess. A huge mess that came out of nowhere. Emmes dad somehow got to contact me again. Well through Facebook..which I rarely use. It's just for family. He said he wanted to see Emme. He sent me a long convincing message about it. I guess he feels bad that Emmes getting big and isn't being apart of her life but I find that so stupid because he's the one who almost killed her and would mentally abuse her. But then I looked and he has a girlfriend who also has a kid whose about 7 years old so there's no way that kid is his. They've been dating for a year he said. We chatted a little bit. I started off by replying in a bitchy way but then he was actually convincing. The old me would've blocked him right away but I'm so confident in life now that I was curious and decided to give him a chance. The thing is that Leah doesn't know yet. I have to tell her.

She hasn't been home a lot lately. She's been doing a ton of errands. Especially for Sofia. Since she's in an older grade she's been having these fundraisers for her class and then projects, and Leah has been buying her supplies for those projects. I swear this girl, Sofia, she's gonna be one smart ass kid because she doesn't procrastinate unlike Emme. She waits to do homework last minute. Sometimes even in the morning on the way to school. Sometimes I even have to do it but I know I shouldn't. She's still smart though but..she has to do her own things.

Emme, Emilia and I all went to go eat out for lunch while Sofia was with Leah. Everyone always looks at us. I don't know why, but then one couple did approach us and said we look all alike. Well duh. They're my kids. But they don't know that so I should stop being a bitch.

"Emilia repeat after me" Emme said and Emilia looked at her. "I...love...Emme" "I..wuv...memmy" she mumbles. "Emilia I know you know how to say 'love' and 'Emme'. Say it it again" I said and crossed my arms "I wuv Emme!" "Again.." "I wuv emme!hmph. mommyyyyy!!!!" She whines. "Sheesh Okay" I giggled. "Now say I want ice cream" Emme said. "I want ice cweam I want ice cweam!" She says With her baby voice.

I look at Emme and raise my brow. "Excuse me. Don't teach her that" I said. Emme giggled and continued to eat.

"Where mama?" Emilia asks me. "She's with Sofia" she pouts. "Why?" "I want mama" "you'll see her tonight babe" "Yeah!!" She exclaims happily.

It's cute that she always wants Leah but Leahs always too busy. Sometimes Emilia would come in our room and cuddle with us. But more towards Leah. It's cause they had a really close bond when she was still a tiny baby while I was trying to give Emme a lot of my attention since she was getting jealous. Now she's 8 years old so it's not as bad.

"Emme, I have to ask you something" "what?" "It's about your dad" "I don't wanna talk to him. You know that already" "yeah I know. But look..it's nothing too serious. He just wants to see you again a little more. Not all the time. He's changed..he has a new girlfriend, she has a kid whose a year younger than you..that's not the point though...what I'm trying to say is that he just wants to be more supportive for you"

"Why?... when he put me and you through that stuff when I was young?? I don't want to see him okay?"

"Okay" I said and just let that be. I'm not gonna force her because I understand why she doesn't want to see him. But I sense something good could come out of this. Like child support. It's not like I want or need that because I'm pretty wealthy. Both me and Leah are but..I don't know. Maybe I should've told Leah first. But nope. I just went straight to the point. I make mistakes too easily.
