Just realized DS will have a hard time with family history..

H is working late tonight so I have plenty of time to think about random things.  One thing is that DS has a messed up family tree.

H is adopted.  Both adopted parents are deceased and there is no other family (aunts/uncles etc)  He has an adopted brother with some serious screwed up issues plus is a recovering alcoholic who we never see or even hear from unless his disability check is late.  When H told him I was pregnant his response to H was "are you ready for that..". 

I am from my mother's first marriage. My bio father is an a$$hole who I have not spoken to in over 15 yrs which includes that entire side of my family.  Both grandparents on that side are deceased.  I have an older half sister from my father's first marriage who I never met until 2 yrs ago but we do chat via facebook.  She has 2 sons (my nephews) who I have never met.

I also have two 1/2 siblings from my mother's present marriage(they've been married almost 21yrs). My stepfather is an amazing man who never made me feel like I was less than his daughter because we do not share dna.  He is MJ's grandfather and his family is already in love with MJ. 

However I wonder.... when it comes time to talk about family trees how will I explain all this to him...

(dam H should never leave me alone with too much time to think when I'm exhausted..)

    i hate when the men folk leave us too much time to think. lol. i think about the fact that we know nothing of my fiance's medical history because he too was adopted. also, (this is going to sound terrible but i don't care) i think about what race my daughter is going to put on all her official documents. my fiance is caucasian and i'm hispanic (although on all gov papers i'm white-hispanic). so i dunno if lo is white or biracial. i don't care either way...but that's what i think about when left alone for a long time.
