A year of blending.

I have an update. My husband was granted full custody of his two daughters ages 15 and 12 in May 2024 he was granted temporary custody starting September 2023 his daughters have not had any contact with their mother since September 2023 and for those of you who haven't read my previous blogs the bio mom is a narcissist with drug and alcohol addiction and is in complete denial that her behavior is causing harm to her children. She has spent the better part of 10 years alienating her children from me, (their stepmother) and their father.

One breath at a time.

Just wanted to share my update, things have been better and worse. My husband and I have been communicating on a deeper level and making progress in ways we've never experienced before. This has allowed us to be a parenting team. My hope for us is restored! It was really just figuring out our roles and being respectful to each other's boundaries. It would be even more helpful if he communicated his needs more clearly, but we will get there, we are getting there.

Trying to be in the moment.

Yesterday, I found a bag of flower in my SD14's room. I thought I'd smelled skunk in the bathroom a few nights ago and felt suspicious. Rather than letting her father know first, as I should have, I feared that he would blow off my suspicions as usual, I took matters into my own hands, found it, left it and informed DH. I felt bad for searching her room, as I'm trying to be an example of healthy boundaries and communication.... My DH spent about 7 hours talking with SD14, past midnight.
