is it best to ignore an ex wife's rants or should I be suspicious?

yesterday we threw a HUGE birthday party for my step son. he's 5. this morning hubby's alarm was going off and he was in the bathroom so I went to shut it off... low and behold a text from the ex... "don't call me any more. they are more important. that was pretty 'crappy' what you did today..." he says she is just trying to get under my skin. what do you think? all day and into the night he thanked me for throwing such an amazing party for his son. I just don't get it! either she is jealous or I should be. what's your take!?
 
In most cases, it’s fair to assume the ex is really just trying to start problems.

Let it go. You threw a great party for your SS and that’s what’s important right now. I’m sure the ex was just upset because maybe she is jealous of how well you did. Maybe she’s just insecure?

Either way, be above that. Say and do nothing. Just carry on....
 
The psycho (meaning the ex) is jealous because maybe she can't do anything that special for her son. You're the one married to her ex husband, you're the one that has an opportunity to do special things with your stepson when he visits, and maybe you're being the better 'mom'. The ex is probably feeling jealous because she can no longer have that perfect picture of a family and share the wonderful times she used to have. I agree with your husband..just ignore what she says and keep doing what you do with your stepson.
