#step kid

Anyway, I was board... Enjoy some random found family sillies. (I made Stan cry again...)

Only here for her bestie🥰✌️

My step kid raided my make up. Luckily she only went for a cheap palette. Her 'Ella pose' 🙄🤔

We, well Joseph got a letter in the mail, stating that he'd have to "be ready to discuss family's strengths and needs.--"  in the meeting he has with the caseworker Monday. &&, all I have to say to it is that; Can you not tell that this woman has not changed? To even consider giving her a chance to fight for these boys? I mean, what kind of woman, mother, goes out right after her children have been taken away from her and tattoos the first guy she gets in a relationship with name on her (if that doesn't make sense, what I'm trying to imply is that she tattooed this guys name on her after being with him for a few months)? Does that NOT show you that her "I'm changed" attitude is just a show? That she WILL still put a man before the needs of her children? If I were going to this meeting I will put it out there like this; We have a little boy together. Not once has he been to the hospital for being mistreated; neither Joseph or myself MISTREATS our son. He actually gets taken to TWO hospitals in the matter of two days just to be sure he's going to be okay because he's THAT cared about. He is monitored 24/7. He's never once missed a check-up. When we go to the check-ups not once has the doctors felt the need to be concerned with his weight, because he is absolutely healthy! He doesn't starve to the point of being malnourished. No, no. And if they have something to say about me; whether I'd treat him any different because he's not my child? Who on earth do you think was looking for beds and clothes for him? Who is the one that insists that Joseph buy him things during holidays just so he doesn't feel left out or forgotten on special occasions? Who is making sure Joseph doesn't miss a visit? Who's the one that is WANTS Joseph to get him (not that Joseph or anyone else doesn't), but seriously... If I didn't care for him I wouldn't be doing anything. I would sit back and say "It's your son, do it your damn self." When Joseph and I first got together, right off the bat he told me he had a kid with another girl. If I am as smart, as I know I am, any other smart person wouldn't stay with someone if they didn't think they can handle the fact that their significant other had a child with another person right? Yes, the child was not in our life at the time. But life is life, it has a funny thing of bringing up your past. Chances were we were going to continue our life with just us or like it is now, Landon will be apart of it. I've not ran out the door because of it. Also, no one knows my past like my family (and Joseph). I have the HUGEST heart for those that have been similarly treated as I was as a child. Beaten, talked bad to, in foster care. NO CHILD should have to deal with that. No child. And it just blows my mind that she allowed it to happen by staying time and time again. Not getting her and those kids out of that predicament? Back to subject at hand. I also strongly think our strength is; Landon wants his dad in his life. If he didn't, he wouldn't be so open to Joseph as his father from the start. Landon wouldn't go asking the visit worker while on a visit with the mom "When am I going to see my dad?" If Landon believed he was going to be at any harm with being with Joseph, with the things he's been through, there would be no Joseph going on visits. There wouldn't be talk about Joseph getting him, because he would tell the visit worker how he feels about Joseph. Case workers talk, man, they want to make sure their doing right for the child so again... if he had that bad feeling, he would speak it because he's been through so much (I know I did, when my mom first brought my step-dad around.) If Landon gets placed back with his mother, I have no doubt in my mind we'll be back to how it was 7 months ago. The mom won't allow Joseph in his kids life, because hell she's already spreading word like wildfire that she "doesn't understand why Joseph's in this process" and that she "doesn't want Joseph apart of Landon's life". YOU GUUYS (the state) had to pressure her into even giving information about him, remember? I mean, doesn't that clearly state as Joseph's been saying since day one THEY KEPT HIM OUT OF HIS LIFE. Taking either of them out of each others life at this time will not only hurt one of them, it will certainly hurt them both. And she will do that..
