Such a wonderful Mother's Day. Mommy and me swim in the morning, a great nap in the afternoon and on stellar behavior all day! It's like my 9 month old knew she had to be on top of her game for this special day of the year. One thing was missing. My stepdaugther's, who have always acknowledged Mother's Day with cards and breakfast or at the very least, a phone call...did NOTHING. Now, for all of those reading, let me preface this statement by saying that I am by no means a Saint, nor am I saying that I am god's gift to stepmother's....but I do a pretty good job and give them the mothering that they need due to the fact that their own mother is a 42 year old child. I won't go into a list of all of the things that I do for them, because a normal person would be doing these things anyway. I can't help but feel completely crushed though. My birthday was forgotten several months ago and after I explained why I was upset my 8 year old stepdaugther asked me to take her to the movies...REALLY???? I think I have had it. I think that enough is enough and it's time for me to let their mom do their job because the crap that I'm getting is not worth the every other weekend "mom and go" routine.
