Can I get a high five!

[AllInTheBestPossibleTaste]

Been a SM for 11 years now, I've been in my dsc lives since they were 3 & 7....we've had a rollercoaster of a ride and DH and I have had two more children, now they are 13 and 18 and and we have just all 6 of us come back from a lovely family holiday. I did feel like walking sometimes, the Jekyll and Hyde my DH turned into Eow nearly broke me but I knew it would get better if I didn't overstep and didn't let my irritation with him pass onto the kids. It's not their choice after all. They are lovely children and have never once referred to my children as half siblings....we are all family.

Sorry for the gushy post but I'm just feeling so good about it all (ind I remember coming on this page in despair at one time)

So....can I get a high five for my lovely dsc and I ?

High Five to you!

So overly to hear a success story xx

*lovely 🥰

Well done!

🥳 awww that's lovely

Huge high five!! I've got 3 dsc and it can be a battle sometimes! Congrats on your win!

Thanks....

I think the fact that their DM is also a nice person and we all communicate as need be helps massively. I think her becoming a "SM" (not married to her BF but family's come in all shapes these days) has helped her see how hard it can be, but like me, she has the kids interests at heart. I never thought I'd be writing a post like this :)

Congrats and well done. Great to see a positive post.

Well done

Massive high five for you OP!
We ( DP and two teenage DSC) have just had two weeks away and I have to say it has been the best holiday we have all had together, mostly, they (and"dp") have been great and I've managed to relax on my holiday.
Being a SM is a thankless job, take your joy where you can get it
