Soooooo...P emailed SIL-from-hell yesterday for her birthday. I guess they had some polite email volleys...then she lays this one on him when he tells her that we had to fire daycare:
"When you guys come back here to (Southern State) to live, then I'll babysit H."
Ummmm....we're moving across the country? Since when? Really? I didn't notice the for sale sign that is cloaked in my front yard. And? To add to the stupidity...she's never met H! She also sent her like a 12.00 toy for her birthday in her parents' suitcase. And it's kinda lame too. It's the kind that an adult says "ohhhh, so cute", but in reality holds very very little interest for the child, except for when she watchs stupid adults trying to convince her that this is the coolest toy in the world.
Soooo...where is this coming from?!
A. Natural assumption because SIL hasn't cut the umbilical cord yet that we don't want to be so far away?
B. Her attempt to guilt us?
C. MIL either pining away again for her son to "Come Home." or because she's now a grandmother, really finding a new reason we should move there. Perhaps misreading the fact that we might visit for the first time in over 8 years as a sign?!
I don't want to live in the hot humid South. There's no jobs for P there. Ohhhh, and we have a house, the rest of the family, and all of our friends and loved ones HERE.

We love you whatever type you are. :-D
Did P email back "LOLs"? Probably wishful thinking on her part.
