So my step daughter has been staying with us for about 3 weeks now and next weekend she has to go back to her mom. My 3 year old has come VERY VERY attached to her. She will not do anything without her. It is going to be very hard and very sad for her when she leaves. Its hard for her to understand that she has to go home. What to do??? Maybe I will make it a special day before she leaves and take them both to have a tea party or something so that Gabi can see that she had a good last day with her sister. I think that would make her feel a lot better.
Being a part of a military family where you have to move where they send you is hard when you have step children in another state. It makes me wonder how much more time they will miss together. When we get out of the army in the near future we will also be living in different states... What toll is that going to have on my children? I hope we can make it to where Lexi can visit us as often as possible.
