So, BM is having her C-section Today. Yesterday, I was cleaning my garage and found a box full of my son's (now 2.5 year old) old baby clothes and shoes. Even the tux he wore at the wedding when he was 7 months old. I didn't have anybody to give that to, so I sent all that stuff to BM. She thanked me.

So, DH and I were once again arguing about issues related to my family being here in our house for a week. And he mentioned in a random, unrelated note, "just let you know how outside people see our marriage..." and he told me how earlier this girl, his ex-student cuz he is a teacher (she is like 17 or 18 now) said on facebook that she thought it was awkward that he had BS2 listed as his son and I didn't have SD6 listed as my daughter.

Now, DH once mentioned that to me. He asked why didn't I have SD6 listed as my daughter.

If a genie, or whoever appeared and said that you have ONE wish to be granted, but can only choose from the following list, which one would you choose?

A)Make the Stepkids disappear, like they never existed, like BM and DH never had kids
B)Go back in time to the point in which you met DH
C)Make the BM suddenly die of a heart attack
D)Be able to invisibly go to BM's house and scare the crap out of her as ghost (only for one night)

Or of course, no wish at all, and say "bye genie".

Personally, I wouldn't choose any of those...

My dad's double life

My story is super strange and little unusual to say the least. I grew up with both of my parents having the perfect "marriage" (20 year long marriage) up until I was like 11. They got divorced, it was totally unexpected and sudden for me and my sisters. (Have in mind that my dad had two sons with another woman before my mother, but they never lived together or got married) My dad had been cheating on my mom for years with this "new" woman and when they got divorced, he left our house and moved with her, had a child with her.

2010 and society still does not recognize the role of stepparents.

I can't believe that we are so advanced in technology and psychology and stepparents are still rarely recognized. It is actually not common to have kids that have the same brothers and sisters with the same married, parents. I would think that blended families are soooo common that society was actually giving some recognition to the role.

Some of my observations are:

Resenting a child?

From my experience, when I feel like DH is taking sides with his daughter (not often at all) is like I resent taking care of her, I'm not affectionate at all, let alone loving.

When I feel that he is putting me and our marriage first, and that he shows her that we are a team, I happily provide my love, energy and time for her. Is like, I automatically feel like since we are taking care of her as a "team", I should put my part. NO RESENTMENT or anything, it just feels like a healthy family to me.
