CS called back. Basically MSD is a "minor" until CS stops which is when MSD graduates in June. So BM can continue to collect the CS even though MSD no longer lives there. Of course DH could take custody of MSD but that would just cause more problems. Not to mention she has her own baby.... so we would really be taking custody of her and baby. Not worth it. Too many issues. Still nerved by this. DH and I would like to see the CS go directly to MSD. BM would never turn it over willingly. Thankfully it's only for a few more months.

***Update

This one is especially for you Blending2012.

DH did not take the skids to the hockey game. He is actually on call this week, so he would be unable to. So I guess he kind of "lucked out". I def. think he was just blowing smoke because he has not talked about seeing the skids since he last made that comment. So if it was really that important to see them, then he would have made different plans. He is on call until Saturday. As of now there are no make up plans.

Cute story*** BS8 actually told DH on his own that he loves him. I thought it was really cute to hear it. DH will tell BS8 he loves him and BS will respond back with it. But to hear him do it on his own...... Just makes me feel better about everything. Being in a "blended" family is hard. It's good to know that my BS is feeling loved and has that love back for DH.
