[The ex]:

This update was set to go out April 1, 2011.  Sorry for the delay.

Quick Update:

School: [Daughter] finished her [State Test]'s (State Exam) and she is confident she did well.  She is doing wonderful in school as you know. She had asked if you wanted to purchase a book that she made and was disappointed that you elected not to buy it after telling her that you would.  For the record, no the school will not photocopy the book for you.   I will attach more scans of her school work and will forward you the copy of her [State Test] results when we receive them if you are unable to get a copy of them.  Again, the school is able to mail results and work directly to you as well.

Cheerleading: She finished out the season and now is in wait mode until activity season starts up again in the fall.  She did get a 3rd place trophy which she sent you a picture of.  She had a good time but because the league was disorganized, she opted to not sign up next season.  I am not certain what she wants to do for the next year, I'll let you know as its confirmed.

Medical: [Daughter] has remained pretty healthy and as Children & Youth reported to you she neither had a 105 fever nor seizures on her birthday.  She did recover fairly quickly from her cold.  Her palate extender was replaced today and it will be coming out soon, per Dr. [Home state orthodontist].  She has been a model patient.

A few quick notes about the packages.  I am glad you were able to send [Daughter] some things up for [Daughter].  First, our daughter will not be wearing make-up.  I put it aside and if you'd like that back I'll be happy to set it aside for you. The bras that you are sending our daughter are inappropriate.  She is not going through puberty as yet and has no need for them.  We purchase her full under shirts that are age appropriate if you would like to send those up instead.  Additionally, [Daughter] cannot chew bubble gum as explained to you, please refrain from sending her up any gum or sticky candy as they will get stuck in her palate extender.  In addition, the caps that you had placed in 2007 (?) have the same restrictions on gum and sticky candy so I am surprised that you would encourage or allow any gum.  The first aid kit is not age appropriate.  The last time you gave [Daughter] a kit and medication, it delayed the healing of the bite she got in [other state] and caused scarring and an open wound.  Please refrain from giving her any kind of medication or first aid kit.  As explained to you, we have not only thermometers and medication but a more than adequate first aid kit.

[Daughter] is doing really well.  We continue to follow up with Dr. [Home state therapist] on a semi-regular basis.  She had a really fun birthday party, as she probably told you.  She had a few girl friends over and did crafts and danced and laughed.  She was all dressed up and [StepMom] did a fancy hair style in her hair.  Despite having a cold and having Children and Youth show up, she had a pretty great party.  

If you have any trouble with attachments or getting pictures from [Daughter], please let me know.  She has been using her camera to send you her own pictures.  We also have some pictures and a bracelet in the mail to you.  I hope that you received the card she made for your birthday this past month.

Kindley consider that this is my daughter, not a subject of a science experiment. 

[Daughter] and her Mom need time to be together, not a status 'report' mixed with your criticfism.

Please move forward with the big picture to correct this situation.

You are correct - [Daughter] and her Mom do need time to be together. Together in a whole and stable relationship, not one based on having to create 'codes' or what to say to authority figures.  I am thinking of the big picture and my corrections are not "criticism" but to bring your errors to your attention. No one is treating our daughter as a science experiment, the updates serve solely to keep you informed.
