The only grandchildren I will have are my step-grandchildren. I adore them and the only fear I have is later, somewhere down the road, my husband's ex-wife (their real grandmother) trying to plant a seed in their minds about me in a negative light. She did it with my husbands daughter (who is an adult)...because she was jealous of me and Larry and Larry's daughter will hardly speak to us and comes around once a year...to get her christmas present. It's sad. I believe that my step-DIL will intervene if she sees this happening. These grandchildren mean the world to me and I hope that they will always look to me as their Mammaw.
