Finally had it out with my inlaws. I understand there concerns about me coming into the light what with my 3 year old daughter, living in the South, and a crazy ex that changes her mind and attitude at any given moment. I sat down and talked about some of the mixed messages I was getting. I sat down and told them how I felt and why I can't go back into the shadows. They asked me if I was sure about doing this and the consequences that may or may not happen. I said yes and I added that my crazy ex was going to be in the fight of her life if she tries to take her away from me. Now for the fun part now I have my daughter call me Maddy short for mommy and daddy. Now my mother-in-law is asking how she should address me to her friends. This is where I am lost. I have been gnawing on this bone and am completely stumped If yall got any ideas I am willing to see what you think. Happy Holidays to all of you out there.
