So tomorrow my amazing former stepson 18 heads off to college. He was 7 when he entered my life and turns 19 in October. It wasn't always perfect but I always lived him.

Tonight my new husband and bs9 are going to his mom's to say goodbye. I am very proud as he joined ROTC and received scholarships that will pay for 3 of the 4 years. He asked to use me as a reference for one of his grants. He asked me not his dad ( needed some one who didn't live with him).

I am so proud of him.

Thanks Willow. We have had some challenges this spring but we worked through them health & job issues. We have worked with BS's therapist as well on our blending. He is selling his house, moving in with us and next year we will buy a town home near where I live so my commute will be minimal and BS will not need to switch schools. He loves us very much and it is so cute but he loves being a step dad. They have a good relationship and BS is very respectful of him and vice versa. He wants to be a good friend and step dad and I want to do my part to help him be successful. I do not want to be like a lot of the spouses thatsabatoge the steps relationship.

I have not spoken about it to the loon. I do not speak to him for the most part, he did not wish to meet the trucker and the only reason I met his GF/fiance is because she was at BS's concert and introduced herself to us. She is delightful and BS adores her as well. There is a part of me that feels that it is wrong to not say anything but I referred to him as my fiance once ( after he had already quizzed BS about my ring)and he launched into a vicious email and referred to him as the poor bastard and many other insulting things, painting himself to be the victim accusing me of things he did in our marriage.

Loon is still being an a$$. The older boys barely speak with him because they are so sick of his lies and manipulation. Just this weekend he told BS a huge whooper about me. He told me dad lied about you again mom and then told me the story his dad was telling about me to the GF painting me to be the villian. I just shrugged and told him, as long as you know the truth that is all that matters, I can't do anything about what your dad says about me to others. The man single handedly has ruined his relationship with the big kids and although he is full tilt disney dad with a vacation looming he is still stupid enough to think that by bad mouthing me to and in front of our child it will rewrite history in his mind as well.

It is what it is, I act excited about the things they do together when BS tells me and do damage control when necessary. He will always be BS's dad. I am greatful he has a nice GF because he behaves better when their is someone else around.
