I lied today and feel bad about it.

BM sent an Easter box to the boys.

Maybe it's because I hate that the interloper has power in my life and not because I am trying to let her but because she can ruin their days in a heartbeat, or maybe it is because she told DH "I am a great mother" on the phone yesterday and I am still in shock, or maybe I am just fed up with being JUST A STEPMOM ... Regardless, the package was at the door when I got home and DH was getting kids from day care.

I snapped.

I kicked the stupid box across the entryway.

I told the boys that the mailman probably dropped it.

Then I felt so bad I told DH. He said "Go vent on ST."

Honestly... I can see myself snapping and doing the same thing. No, that doesn't mean its right but I can understand why you would feel frustrated enough to do it.. Meh, on the other hand, chocolate rots their teeth anyway. Hmmmm, maybe you were doing them a favor?? Awww, I tried..
