[quote=Anonymous]Ex is engaged to a very nice woman and she has been apart of my kids lives for almost 2 years now. Its going fine in general but there are always new firsts and we are kinda setting the stage inch by inch as things arise. Over the wknd Future Stepmom took my DD school shopping for new tennis shoes and also got her some nice gym shorts. (They went to Dicks for other things in general and DD asked to try on shoes and it organically happened)  Traditionally I pay for "back to school" and all extra curriculars because Ex pays for the school itself. I asked EXH how much the shoes/shorts were and I would write him a check, he graciously declined and said "it was Future SM idea and we wanted to do it."  Im thinking of just leaving it at that but I always wanted to maybe write her a quick note thanking her for including my DD and I appreciate the practical and generous gift and maybe include a starbucks GC?  Is that too much/ trying to too hard? I just want to acknowledge  the gesture because she really could have easily said "Your mom is taking you next week for school stuff" and left it at that. Just trying to be polite and kind as we navigate this new family structure. Shoes were about 100 dollars, not sure about shorts. PS: My DD did thank her a few times too. [/quote]
