The worst part of the bomb drop was finding out days before my first mother's day that there was an OW. which I suspected, but had my proof. The thought of him leaving me for OW was enough. The thought of my not even year old baby being around this woman..... my God did the mama bear come out in me!
I demanded, begged, threatened, for him to never bring her around my daughter. He didn't listen, of course. Truth be told, I had no recourse. I wouldn't press your kids on them spending time together because there is nothing you can do about it. That is the cold, hard, reality. ANd I am truly sorry for it, because I know how it feels.
Fast forward 10 years and my ex has been married to this woman for 7 of them. She is my daughter's stepmother. But I will tell you, my daughter knows I AM HER MOTHER!! I can assure you, that you will always be Daddy.
