I would like to apoligize to you for things I have said in the past.
Until recently I didn't understand fixing the marriage before having contact with the OC. You truly need a strong stable marriage while dealing with the Xow and things with the Oc
I hope things are getting better and one day you can have a decent relationship with your step-daughter

Hey no worries! Thanks for the apology <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
At the time you had lots of influences. You were only going on what you were told not on what you knew for sure.
The marriage foundation absolutely has to be rock solid if it is to sustain a family. Throw in a blended family and you better make sure that there are no faults in that foundation!! I could not see myself trying to make a home for the OC when our marriage was not stable. It wouldnt be fair to the baby nor my children.
As you know its really difficult when all the kids are involved only to tell them sorry cant see your bro/sis right now...I am so happy I did not tell my kids as everyone screamed I should. Now that visitation has been set and we can have the baby without OW present, there will be no more worries for drama. I would hate for my kids to witness anything like that...
Now I must say Crazymum, I can see that youve worked hard on you and your marriage by a few things I have read. Good for you!! What a difference it makes, huh?
Thanks again!
