I had a step sister growing up and she used to over emphasize the whole step thing, so its always had a bad taste in my mouth. As a matter of fact there's a women I work with who has a step son and apparently she can't stand him. When I was telling her about this blog she started to say things like, can I go on and write how horrible it is being a step parent and how much I hate my step son and wish he'd just get the hell out of my house. I couldn't believe what she was saying. To me using the whole <em>Step</em> emphases is like building a wall between you and your kids. Granted it's my website name, but still, I prefer not to use it as often as possible. As a matter of fact the only times I do use it is in instances where its necessary to specifically state what the relationship is between me and the kids. I'm sorry, by the way, to hear about your late husband, but it's nice to know that the time he did have made an good impact on your kids. Thanks again for you comment.

Love how you use the words"my kids" and not stepkids. My late husband always said my kids too and they remember that. They also always said that he was their Dad, the one who was always there for them, not just when he had to be! Family is love not just blood. I commend you for doing a great job.

Great minds, you know... I agree though, reading to kids is just too much fun. Now that danielle's working at the library (spoiler for next weeks post) I'm hoping she may get the opportunity to do just that. We'll see what happens.

If she doesn't like it, I know you will. One of my greatest joys is to read to a child. They hang on your every word and always say "one more page, Please"...I can't wait until I can start reading to the twins. I miss reading to Stephen, but now he reads and we discuss it. That's a lot of fun too. Keep up the good work, I enjoy you posts. When you finish the Neverending Story maybe you should try reading her The Princess Bride. If she doesn’t like it, I know you will.

As a step-mother, myself I understand how the smallest of gestures on Mother's Day (in your case Father's Day) meant so much to me. I appreciate you sharing your feelings on the subject. I now know that it wasn't just me. Again, I thank you. Please continue to post, I enjoy reading what you have to say. wow, great post.
