Wow! After reading a few of these stories, I can actually feel the stress roll of my back.
My step-daughter has only been here a week and will be here for the extended 42 days. My husband and I have already had our first major fight. We were at the point of separation. BUT he finally realized in the middle of our scream fest that his 5 year old was very happy to see us fighting. To the point that she was sitting at the table swinging her legs and smiling like she just got a pony!
