gingy I’ve noticed in your posts how well you treat and speak about your SD and I’ve always been impressed. Some people in my life don’t treat their stepchildren well and it makes me sad for the kids. Raising a teen girl can be ROUGH but I guarantee someday she will appreciate everything you did for her.

I really appreciate this. Her senior year has been HARD. She thinks she wants to be independent but really she doesn't have many rules left in place. She's mostly just picking fights and pushing us away, I assume subconsciously in preparation for going to college in August. She just hasn't figured out how to manage those minor adult-y things yet, like realizing that Mother's Day falls on Sunday. Every year. lol

I also want to be left alone to read in bed all day. I don’t want to meal plan, cook for anyone, or listen to any complaining.

My mom got her card, I'll call her tomorrow I know my gift is an experience but not sure what it is aside from it might not be done until june I'm doing mother's day brunch over here for my dil who is struggling with gestational diabetes. I have a diabetic dh and we have low carb options to make muffins, biscuits or pancakes/waffles. so she can see if anything works. her numbers go up to 200 but then lots of crashings down to 48. Not the right thread for it but if anyone has ideas from breakfast low carb higher protein that don't involve eggs since eggs make her puke. sigh
