Upheaval

My life has changed dramatically in the last 7 months. I've gone from doing what I like, when I like, not having to answer to anyone but myself, to insta-family.

And I don't know anyone else who's a stepparent (except for my stepmum), although I don't really consider myself a step-anything right now (and frankly, it weirds me out a bit), even though the perception is that I am.

I'm just starting to realise the enormity of that.

LOL Ian, that's not gonna be something ever used in a sentence referring to me. ...except when A calls me it by mistake, which is about as much as I can handle. He calls me dad too sometimes, so that makes it better....I think. LOL

As a step-mother to my exes girls who are now 20 and 22, and a kind of step-mother to my now partners son, my advice is... it can only be as complex as you let it.
Enjoy the boy and don't get caught up in something that's just a title :)
Btw, the girls used to call me the step-monster when they were messing around (at least...I think they were?)
