Heart Broken

S-Ma's picture

My stepdaughter (of whom we have 50% custody of) just told her Dad and I that she wants to go live with her Mom full time. I know that I am not her real mom, but, I love her as if she were my own. I have no children of my own, and never felt the need too because I had her. For years, we have done everything we could for her - in fact, we just purchsed a much bigger house so that she could have a bigger room and her own bathroom - something very improtant to a pre-teen girl.

Oh by the way,

In a follow-up/clarification of my last post...

when FDH left BM with SS2 yesterday, SS2 cried and didn't want to be left with BM saying "bye mom" and reaching for FDH ...

that is why he said 'i love you'

and hey you ladies are SO wonderful, you have already made me feel so much better about it!

I love you ladies.

I can't deal with SD12 being so damn rude

I live in a smaller town…not teeny tiny, but small enough where I run into people I know often – too often if you ask me… I was shopping last weekend and while in this particular store I ran into both of my DH’s BMs and the Skids (he has two kids with two moms) – the BMs were not shopping together. In both instances, the kids and BMs ignored me. Super. I don’t know why it bothered me, but I was particularly bothered that the SD12 looked at me and looked away. We have had a good relationship, but lately she is bratty and lippy and just rude. This ticked me off.

Dh found his balls on Saturday, they had been misplaced for far too long..

SD came for the weekend. DH picked her up Friday night and they arrived in time for supper. She made some faces about supper being yucky but we played a few card games and watched a movie and the evening went pretty smoothly. SD did talk back to DH a few times but given her age (12) I think that's pretty normal. At one point the kids were watching videos and I said that Justin Beiber kid looks king of girly, doesn't he? SD replied "NO, he's yummy, you're ugly and look like a boy". I sort of let it go just becuse I had insulted Justin, lol. I did say that's not very nice.

Karma can really come back to bite ya...

Last-Wife's picture

Princess (SD 18)and Loghead have spent the day at an area hospital. For medical reasons (not related to her possible eating disorder) she was taken by ambulance to the nearest hospital, where she will have to have a minor medical procedure this evening.

Being the "Christian" she is, I hope she thinks, "Mmmm... I told a major lie to Dad and Last-Wife- the people who love me most in the world, and this happened? Maybe God is telling me something?!"

Vent about the continuing drama between my own mother and SM.

Awhile back I created quite a stir around here when I blogged about wanting my stepmother involved in my baby shower, and how my mom reacted to all of that (she did not want my SM to even attend it, but I was really saddened that my SM wasn't going to attend). To refresh on the background, my parents have been divorced for 11 years now and my mom would still take my dad back in a heartbeat. Dad is happily remarried to the woman he had an affair with -- my SM -- (although my parents were separated at the time), and all this happened when my sister and I were both over 17.

This is something a lot of divorce parents need to remember

PROMISE TO MY KIDS: I will stalk you, freak out on you, lecture you, drive you crazy, be your worst nightmare, embarrass you in front of your friends, hunt you down like a bloodhound because I LOVE YOU! When you understand that, I will know you are a responsible adult. You will NEVER find someone who loves you, cares about you, & worries about you more than your PARENTS
