The STBXW never liked going on my father's boat or hanging out with him so I never did it often because I thought I couldn't handle the 4 kids myself. Well she has practically abandoned them and I've been doing everything for the 4 kids myself for many weeks now. I finally got to bring them on the boat, spend the night on the boat, and bring them on the beach the next day. It was perfect time with them and my father. Not going to lie, it was a ton of work by myself, but it was all worth it for the fun they had and everything went smooth (maybe a little wild..). My dad helped a bit too but he is old and frail these days so can't do too much. I got them all showered and in bed at home now so I'm going to go pass out.
