Today is the big appointment with the geneticist.

Real fast back story for those that don't remember: BM is constantly making up severe and debilitating conditions for SS13. A few years ago she had him and DH convinced that he was going to have to have 1/2 of his colon removed- turned out he needed a good poop. 2 years ago he had a "cardiac issue" so he couldn't go on a cruise with us- after a fight, we found out from the head of cardiology that SS was fine and there were no issues with him going on vacation. Her new thing is that he has Elhors-Danlos. She won't give any back up or provide doctor information. 

When we were out in yss13's state in April, I actually had a nice chat with BM. She said that she wanted all the drama to be over, coparent with both of us, yadda yadda yadda. I initiated the talk- I told her -- "Look, I just want to talk to you for a minute and let you know that I have an exhusband too, and I think he is an idiot. I am sure that you feel the same way about DH. I get it! With that being said my kids stepmother thinks me ex is an amazing man, just like I think DH is. I have found it easier throughout the years to do most of the planning, scheduling etc with her.

We were gone for about a week to go back to DH's hometown state. We were able to see SS18 graduate and got him packed up and moved back to the east coast with us. We also had a crazy idea that worked out! We planned a wedding in about 5 days with all of the help of Dh's family and got married on Monday! It was small and perfect and meant the world to both of us. All of our kids were there and in the end, that was what mattered to us :)
