My stepson’s mom has one of the most awesome traditions. She throws a Mother’s Day party every year. Every year I feel extremely grateful and honored to be included. Raising a kid across two households is not an easy thing but she makes it possible because she’s an awesome mom.
(And I think we need a few more relationship words in our language these days. How should I refer to my stepson’s mom? My boyfriend’s ex? We need a few more words …)
I so wish this comment “Raising a kid across two households is not an easy thing but she makes it possible because she’s an awesome mom” could come from my son’s stepmom. Good for both of you; having a good relationship is way better for the kid(s).
