So, I'm writing a feature for mother's day about a stepmother who is not a bio-mom who is raising her three stepkids. I found a lady to feature in the article, it's one of SS5's teachers. I'm interviewing her this afternoon at 3pm.
I was wondering if you have any suggestions for questions so that I can get the full stepmom story out of her and make a nice mother's day story about a non-biomom in a mom role.
Just curious..I'm sure there will be mixed responses.
Would you rather the SK's be with you this Mother's Day or with the BM..
I'm sure it depends on the relationship with BM and the SK in general.
As for me, I like my SS2..he is adorable (annoying at times like any baby or when he always begs for food)...as soon as he walks in he runs to me and hugs me..I've grown fonder of him the past few weeks. Now Sat. - Sunday night is FH's time with him. I asked FH if he was going to have him or the BM...because of Mother's Day - he didn't know.
Okay here is the situation. I have a 13 yr old who keeps breaking the rules OVER AND OVER again. To keep this short I will explain the most frequent problem we have with her:
She is a VERY beautiful and mature looking 7th grader. She looks to be 16 or 17 rather than 13 so its no surprise that she gets A LOT of attention from older boys. The problem is that she is not allowed to "go out" with anyone more than a year older than her. I use the words "go out" very lightly because at this age going out is no more than seeing each other at school or talking on the phone.
So we have court in less than 30 days. We paid an attorney. This attorney has not even called us back after we paid him in MARCH! I have called and called. Finally sent in a faxed letter last week begging for some response as to whether we have representation or if he just wants to return our money. His office jumped. Admitted guilt and set up new phone conference. No call again. This was a week ago. No call in yet another week. Now his contract says that the fee is non refundable if we decide to terminate but isn't he the one deciding to breach his contract instead?
Tonight DH and I had a very long discussion as to why I don't want to be involved with SD4 and SS15. It was very intense and emotional. I had to explain to him that although I knew of the kids and was around the kids before we married, I never knew that my feelings regarding them would intensify to this level. Now that we are married, I can't stand the fact that my husband made babies with another woman...It really disgusts me. We went back and forth about the hurt and misery that it's causing all of us.
BF told me this afternoon that he was on his way to BM's town to give SS some money for his field trips tomorrow and Friday. I said OK, I just hope the money actually goes to SS. We haven't been told anything about these field trips except when BM demanded money for them from BF a while back. We still haven't gotten any details about these trips except that SS needs spending money for them.
I love the nicknames and want to redo my profile. I love the way there are others who feel as I do, who go through the same experiences. I spend far too much time at my desk reading the blogs in lieu of working. Still, just wanted to say I really enjoy this site.
I have been my happiest with SD14 and DH since becoming a "vocal" part of the site. Now when SD14 does something I just smile and shake my head b/c I know that someone else in the world has gone through the same thing and survived it.
So just wanted to say that.
depending on him. I am not an dependent person and she is the TOTAL opposite, she cannot do ANYTHING by herself. She has to have SS17 to go with her to get her oil changed, okay... seriously?!? Oh yes, everything and of course, that gives her opportunity to call DH. And, since she constantly calls him (& I do mean on a daily basis) and he always jumps, this could be the only explanation.
Well, Dh talked to sd and I have to say that I am confused... I can't say that I really expected that he would do much but he is just so deep in denial that it is just flabbergasting.
I came into work this morning to find this past's weekend's Sunday engagement section on my desk. There was an engagement announcement of FH and I. I think his mom sent in the info., I'm not sure as I haven't had a chance to talk to her yet.
But it made me smile. It's the first time I had an "engagement" announcement and I feel like a little girl planning her "big day"..even though I'm not planning on having a big wedding, a ceremony on the beach in Jamaica is what we want.
I just thought I'd share my happiness..
I wonder if BM will see it..LOL!
