SS wanted to come w/me & my daughter to join my family's halloween party. we don't have him on halloween, so i told ss that i would ask his mother. i never got in touch w/his mom, then ss told me that his mother said he cannot go to the party because its a school night. he would have gone trick or treating anyways at his neighborhood, what the hell is the difference? i was going to invite her too, didn't mind if she came or not.

My stepdaughter is absolutely gorgeous. She turns six in December, but you can just see how beautiful she's going to be. I try not to resent that my kids (none of which have been conceived) won't be as gorgeous as her b/c I'm totally white, so my kids will be mostly bland while she is half-Chinese and half-Puerto Rican.

I resent all the drama that's come with falling in love with my BF, but I want nothing more than for this little girl to grow up and be a well-adjusted person, a woman with a head on her shoulders.

My little SD is 6 going on 7. I have known her since she was 3 going on 4, we have a strong bond. She goes through phases of missing her mom when she comes to our house--it was a lot for awhile, but for 8-10 months she hasn't said a word. Tonight out of the blue she started crying again about missing BM and wanted to call to goodnight.

This may seem like such a minor thing, but this is just one in a long line of things the BM does that gets on my last nerve. The SD lives with her Mom during the week and with us each weekend. The SD had her school pictures taken and we just got our copies. MY GOD!! I think the BM just let her roll out of bed and throw some clothes on and sent her off to school. She obviously DID NOT have her brush her hair - it was sticking out in ten different directions. So my BF and I decided we're taking the SD to Sear's to get another picture taken, this one is SO bad.
