FURTHER UPDATE! Oh Emm Geee!!!!
Well.... I just got a Facebook message from Young Mom saying that they wouldn't be bringing the boy anymore because they can't do my stated flat rate for "TWO HOURS". She was sweet as pie and apologized for "jerking me around" regarding hours and which kid(s) would come. I have no idea what the "two hours" meant, since she said clearly that it would be from noon until dad comes between 3 and 5. I blocked her hours as being noon till 5. If they wanted to get full usage of their hours on a day dad got into town at 3 or 4, he could've just gone home and come back at 5. They live a mile from me in the same town. Also, she put some blame on her mother-in-law (my ex-neighbor lady) and said that "I told her to bring both kids, but she decided to keep the baby at home with her. Sorry she didn't explain that to you better." I just had to laugh to myself. It's been HER - Young Mom - who has had the poor communication, and now she's blaming it on MIL.
So I'm waiting for the answer on what the "two hours" meant. Whatever. It's best in the long run.
Ok, she just answered and said "what I meant was SOME days he would only be there 2 hours." I responded back about the fact that their block of time was noon to 5 because that's the latest that dad would come pick him up. I said if he came into town early, he could go home and get some rest, blah, blah, blah and come at 5:00. Probably won't hear an answer, but don't really care at this point. She owes me for 1 day and says she'll bring it by on Friday. Like a dummy, I said let me know in the future if you need drop-in care. I was smart enough to say give me a 2 day notice!!
