We are planning our family vacation for the Summer, normally we go to the mountains but this year we want to do something different. We want to go on a cruise, we have started to plan. While I have spoken before about how we have a great relationship with MIL and BM, I do not think it is ok for them to come with us. The idea is for me, hubby and the kids.

I nicely told the BM this, she took it really well, said she was upset but totally understood. The conversation with the MIL was not so good, she flipped out, got pissed and then begged. I feel awful and almost caved.

So glad I am here

I am so happy to be here! I am so excited to find a place to vent and talk to other stepparents!

Here is my story (hope this doesn't cut out, at Starbucks, who knows about the WiFi here, lol!!)

I met my husband years ago while at work, we were both enlisted in the Navy. He was married, I was single. We became friends. I was deployed and by the time I got back he had PCS'd. Fast forward a few years, we ended up talking on Facebook, he was no divorced and I was still single. So we started dating!!!
