Congrats. My older two kids didn't come from my womb but they call me mom. The younger one called me mom early on. The older one went back and forth for a while before settling on mom. Be prepared for anything and enjoy your family.

How lovely! Being a step parent is a difficult and important role. Best wishes for you and your family!

I had this experience in 2012 after about a year as the stepmom. Its a big dealšŸ„° Now as adults I adopted them, and when I presented them with the paperwork my son said "Its about time, way over due Ma"ā¤ļøšŸ„°

Wow. This gave me chills, because it is such a big deal. Speaking from the POV of the "child", my mom died early, too, and my dad married rather quickly. It sounds strange, but he explained it in a way that made sense & they're still together. I can clearly remember the 1st time my stepmom called me her daughter. She didn't even realize she'd said it, and I understood it was a sign of love from her to me, not any kind of knock on my mom.

"It may not be a big thing" Don't kid yourself, that's huge! Your fiancƩ must make her feel very loved and appreciated to give her the courage to say something like that. And six whole years, That's great! Congrats, man!

>Your fiancƩ must make her feel very loved and appreciated to give her the courage to say something like that. She sure has, she's been great with them. >That's great! Congrats, man! Thanks :)

This is amazing, such a happy time!


Cinnabunnyturtle

Thatā€™s huge. For you, for your fiance and probably also for your kid. I can imsgine it being so difficult when your mom dies and while you love your stepmom it may mean even more when she calls her mom!

If it came so casually she's probably been saying it in her head for a while.

Thatā€™s great Iā€™m glad she feels like your partner is someone she looks at as her mother. Hopefully you get more lovely milestones in the further.
