best husband ever!

step1's picture

I just wanted to brag about my husband and the perfect evening he gave me last night. SD was staying overnight with her grandmother and I came home from work to find an indian dish...cooked by hubby, white wine and strawberries, dessert AND a foot rub just for me!He got us a great who-dun-it to watch and we finished off the evening with some "adult time" to the sounds of a thunder storm headed our way. I love that man! Wink

I was wondering if anyone else is having grandparent issues? I am very lucky (or unlucky depending on the day, lol) to have both my parents and my hubby's parents live within about 30 minutes of my house. Hubby's parents are retired and my parents have a flexible work schedule so this means instant babysitter any time we need one...and at a moments notice, plenty of extra support and love for my SD12, lots of family functions for all of us and every other perk that comes with this situation. Sounds perfect right? This is what I am going through, am I being unreasonable?

Hello everyone. I am a new member here and I have never done this before so please forgive me if I mess up a bit. I found this site a few weeks ago when looking for some stepmom advise and I have been reading your stories and learning a lot from them. I am so glad to hear REAL stepmom tales and not the "everything is perfect now and couldn't be better, everyone can have a perfect life like mine...you're just not doing enough" kind of stuff I kept running into. I am 33 years old and I just became the stepmom to a 12 year old who was neglected and abused by her Mother.
