Hello

Hi,

I just found this site and decided to join. I am 25 yrs old starting dating my husband when I was 19 (my first BF). I knew he had two sons. We got married in 2008 and 3 months before our 1st yr ann, the Bio Mom had her husbadn drop of DH's kids at his job. I was never big on raising kids that were not mine but had accepted being that I did not want my marriage to fail. It was a lil bit hard as thet kids had terrible habits bc their Bio Mother is a ghetto monster...anways...I have had my days when I would be depressed that I am living a life I did not want..but that has totally changed. I still believe this is not the ideal "life" but have come to realize that even in this new "life" I can be happy. I hope I can stay on these boards for when I have issues with Skids or my husband. I do feel that noone knows what the stepmom or stepdad goes thru or feels unless they are the step parent.

I really hope I can get the hang of this board.
