SD8 has been having issues respecting people’s boundaries and privacy. SD12 and SD11 have made comments about her not leaving them alone when they are in the bathroom or when they are in their room trying to change or when they simply want to be alone. She never shuts up so I understand them wanting to be alone for a few min.

SD8 will sit outside a locked door and talk to your through the door. I have never had to lock doors before because a shut door is shut for a reason. When she is around you have to lock the door.

We have two soon to be teenagers and they both have recently started causing problems with BM by lying to both us and then them. SD11 and SD12 both tell SO one thing and then their BM another.

SD11 plays softball and has started a new team this year. She has had some issues with the coaches daughter telling her to do this or do that better. Today it was so bad that SD11 cried during their game.

So the coaches daughter is 12 years old and is 100+ lbs over weight. I am not saying anything about her weight in general but this girl does lack the ability to bend over and touch her toes or for the game sake she can't get her glove on the ground.

The Skids decided that I was being left out and needed to have my own step-mom's day. SO decided that we would do it today since we have all the kids. Now if BM's would only leave us alone today it would be perfect.

I wake up this morning... late they let me sleep in, to all four of them at my bedside with breakfast made. I didn't even hear anyone get up this morning at all. It was so cute, Now I can hear them making me cards in the kitchen but I am to stay in bed Per SD's.
