No one else had it that I could find easily, and so I felt I needed to put it out there." I'm glad we have found each other now! Keep blogging mama!

I believe that if you're more than a classmate, a random person off the street, (ESPECIALLY because you are the maternal figure in the home), you deserve it. As long as you're respectful of Mom's position. And for Bio-mom, its a matter of being self assured that you canNOT be replaced.I am Uhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11190572602018451475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706774733871635808.post-80366653040390714272014-04-18T17:03:06.508-07:002014-04-18T17:03:06.508-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.I am Uhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11190572602018451475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706774733871635808.post-16458151852768348842014-04-17T13:53:39.986-07:002014-04-17T13:53:39.986-07:00balance -- definitely!! balance -- definitely!!

I ...Thank you so much for your perspective on this! I struggled with not being called anything other than my first name for a while. I can understand how as a natural-mother it would be hard for the stepmom to be called 'mom.' I wish we did have a better name for stepmoms. I think you are handling the Mr. First Name thing well... if it doesn't bother them then don't let it bother you is right! But frustrating! Thanks again for sharing!
