Weird text from SD20
Yesterday I got a Happy Mother's Day text from SD20 who Ive also referred to as favorite skid. She's probably my favorite because she's never home...also she is so damn funny. She's a sweet girl but very irresponsible, blames everyone for her problems and is always telling poor me stories to explain her shortcoming...ok after describing her in words almost sounds like I dont like her but I do wish her the best and wish she'd get her act together. Her & I aren't super close but she comes to me when she needs something and uses me to manipulate her dad if she wants something and I often oblige cuz DH is hard on her but not the rest of the skids which has always confused me...and other family sees it too.
Back to the weird text. "Happy mothers day, i tried to tag you in a post but it wouldnt let me". Then we exchanged love you texts. More than SD16 says to me in a month haha. Later I saw on facebook that she had a happy mothers day to all of her mother figures with over a dozen people tagged, her mom that abandoned her as a teen + a bunch of aunts. Apparently thats the text she wanted to tag me in but I dont believe that she did. Im not sure why she would leave me out but send me the text in private. I dont believe BM is jealous of me. BM loves that I take care of her kids while her & her husband vacation, see movies, have their evenings free. Not too hurt but just confused if she wanted to leave me out why text me to bring it up? Theres no reason facebook wouldnt tag me like she said.

If you exchanged "I love you"
If you exchanged "I love you" texts with your SD, don't worry about why you weren't tagged. It may have been a technology glitch. It may be a political glitch to do with the others who were tagged. It may have been that she just plain forgot your name and didn't want you to be hurt.
It doesn't matter. Trust the relationship. Trust her. If it happens five more times or three more times, maybe question it. But right now, take her word, continue what sounds like a fantastic relationship and don't worry about little things. Life is too short. If there is more to it, it will come out in time, but for now, choose to be happy and enjoy your relationship with her.
Who knows why she wasn't able
Who knows why she wasn't able or didn't tag you but at least she contacted you and let you know that she tried. You don't know her true intentions but she did reach out and wished you a wonderful day. Look at it in a positive light and don't read too much into it. Whether she did so on purpose or not doesn't take away from the great mom/stepmom that you are.
