Youngest step daughter wants to visit us before the holiday.
I knew it! If I went to the baby shower Ysd daughter would think everything is fine. Sure enough her thank you comes in the mail and low and behold she writes that she and her husband want to visit us before the holidays. And asked when we would be available. So, dh sets it up for Dec. 15th. Remember this is the same sd who didn't even answer our invitations to christmas or easter last year. She has not been in our home for almost 2 years. Gee, what brought this on? The pregnancy. Can not be her father's illness she never came to see him when he was so very, very ill after his chemo treatment.
Dh asked me what I was going to cook for lunch for them? Cook??lol I am not cooking anything. lol He can order take out. I usually love to cook when we have visitors.
I am trying so hard not to stress out. I keep repeating to myself I am not responsible for dh's relationship with his daughter. Eight yers of the constant drama and manipulation is enough for me.

His daughter - let HIM cook;
His daughter - let HIM cook; remind him of his great culinary skills or order pizza (that's what I did!) And yes, you are NOT responsible for their relationship. When DH kids come over, I text my friends to call me at around the time they arrive and/or when they're here - great excuse to leave the room and gather your bearings/wit!
Or (I'm trying to be positive for your sake) she could be trying to make amends.
You won't know unless you're there to witness.
Keep us posted and good luck; your ST prayers are with you!

@ Toywas thank you for the suggestion to get a text or phone call. Terrific idea. I am going to do that. And no I am not cooking a thing. Thanks for the prayer. I need them.
