Well behaved women rarely make history

Mother's Day

Mother's Day was Sunday.  And I haven't celebrated it for the past 3 years.  Because I no longer have a mother.  I have what I refer to as an "egg donor".  And honestly, I thought that I would miss talking to her, but there hasn't been one day that has gone by in the past 2 years that I've thought "Wow...I wish I could talk to my mom".  Nope.  Not once. 

I stopped talking to the egg donor in April of 2008.  Because she proved that she is an evil person incaple of love for her own children.  You see, my sister went through a divorce a few years ago and the egg donor, instead of supporting her own daughter, decided to oust my sister and defend her ex-husband.  Then she had the balls to serve my sister with court papers saying that she was an unfit mother and therefore SHE (the egg donor)  deserved custody of my niece and nephew!!!  This was, of course, after she unsuccessfully tried to convince my ex-brother-in-law to fight for custody of the kids and then just "give them" to her because she knew that HE couldn't take care of them, since he now lives with his parents and sleeps on a couch.

So, my sis went to court.  And of course, she won.  Because the truth is she's NOT an unfit mother.  Her children are well taken care of and are not in need of anything.  They have food, clothing, shelter, love, etc.  My sister is an incredible mother. 

But it didn't stop there.  Oh no.  Then the bitch decided to slap another suit on my sister.  This time for "grandparent's visitation rights".  So, this time I went to testify on my sister's behalf.  And of course, we won.  Again.  The truth is, the kids don't even WANT to see their grandmother anymore.  They used to see them when their father had them every other weekend, but the egg donor would spend the entire visit talking shit about my sister and pressing the kids for details about what my sister doing.  She even asked the kids to lie to their own mother!!!! 

But oh no.  That wasn't enough.  No, this bitch is relentless.  2 years later, my sister is going BACK to court for the 3rd time because this bitch has APPEALLED the judge's decision NOT to grant her any visitation, because she stated it was "not in the best interest of the children". 

Meanwhile, my sister has missed  countless days of work, going to court, meeting with her attorney,  spent thousands of dollars on attorney''s fees (that she does not have) when she could have been spending time with her kids and spending money on their Christmas gifts.  For the past 2 years I have paid for most of the kids' Christmas gifts because honestly, my sister just doesn't have the money.  She is a single mom, for crying out loud!  And...because she has to keep going back to court, the attorney's fees have really added up.  And the attorney wants a huge chunk of cash before the next court date (next month), so I am ponying up some of my hard earned cash just to make sure that my sister is properly represented in court.

This bitch has cost us both of us (and the kids) countless dollars and heartache.  So, no, I don't have a mother.  And I dont' celebrate Mother's Day.  She can rot in hell.
