    So, now do tell ... why is he your ex?

    I can match your story and raise you one, but in the spirit of Halloween, I'll let you have the trump ex story for the day.

    Signed me ... one who can breathe more easily and smiles often.

    This is pretty clearly all your fault.

    You married a guy named Norm

    What a complete and utter douche! There is a reason why some people are Exes. On the plus side, I'm glad your son's teacher is cool & understanding...I hope the little guy has fun at his party today!

    These are the moments I realize how thankful I am to be divorced - sorry if that sounds cruel but his lack of responsibility in life is unbearable. And he has no concept of taking ownership for his mistakes or apologizing - none.

    I did talk to the teacher this morning (truth be told w/ tears in my eyes) and explained. She is awesome and said not to worry, it happens and she won't punish Leland for it since this was clearly not his fault. Thank goodness. It's their Halloween party at school today and he's SO excited about it.
    Glad you talked tot he teacher. Hope your son has a great day.

    Aw I'm so sorry! My sons father is so frustrating to deal with as well! I'm so glad we're divorced too! Seriously, if you can't put your child first, then you need to reevaluate your life & make changes! Period. Hope your and your sons day got better!!

    wow, that sucks. what a lazy person. Sounds like he can't take responcibility for his actions so it's better to first put it off on the kid, and then you

    sorry you and your son had to deal with that

    Ouch. That does suck. Glad you were able to talk to the teacher.

    Sounds like maybe you are adjusting to not being able to count on your ex as a responsible adult. That's hard to do emotionally, but getting there logistically isn't impossible. You're already doing it (backup costume, for example). It may mean more work, bigger hassle for you. But the payoff may ultimately be less emotional stress.

    no bueno at all. Baby daddies are often times not easy to deal with. I'm sorry yours proves that point....

    Thanks y'all! This day will get better, my son will have fun. And that is all the matters in the end is that he has a good Halloween and is none-the-wiser about any of this.

    I have to find a way of talking to the ex about this and finding out why he has been so unable to keep a routine lately... But not today.
