Hi ladies!

I have been lurking on this board for a while, and some of the information has been very helpful to me. At the very least, it is nice to know I am not alone in some of the issues I am dealing with.

My husband and I have been married for 3 years (together for 6) and I am the step-mom to one 13 yo girl. We are also in the process of adopting an infant domestically. SD is excited about being a big sister (or so she says), and I am very excited about being a Mom.

We have an interesting relationship with BM. Some days she can be nice as can be, and some days she is mad the second she answers the phone. You just never know. Her and DH have been divorced since SD was 5. I met him right before she turned 7. DH didn't date much before me, so I am the only woman she has met in connection with her Dad. BM has had several different guys living with her over the years, but noone right now. She says she is still involved with the last one, but he doesn't live there anymore, so I consider it none of our concern. I can go on and on and on about problems with BM, but I will save it for now. I'm sure it will all come out as things come up. Wink
