You really should turn it around and feel blessed that the step mom "loves" your child enough and is not the "wicked" step mom, stealing Dad away. You would hate that and worry about this "evil" women. I know your feelings are hurt, but you will have many many times that this will happen over the next 10 years. Maybe you can work it out with your X that you can be included for pix in the future and he can to. Then your son would be blessed to have everyone together and not worry about either of you.

We validate your feelings, but learn from this and make changes, if you can, to not have this happen again. ((((((((((hugs)))))))))))
