What a cutie. I have a cute one of my dh, too -- he was pouting. Maybe I'll scan it sometime... but, well, my desk is a mess and, well... where did I put it, anyway?
Pouting?! How cute :-) I only have this one from before I met him (will have to take a scanner with me when I (*finally*) manage to find time to make a trip out to stay with his mother. She did, last year, send us one of those plaster hand imprints...from when he was five. I think she thought he'd want to have it, but he has no interest in the thing. It makes me very happy though and I keep it in my office.
BTW: what does dh mean? I see people using common abbreviations (mil I figure must mean mother-in-law) and have deduced that it must translate somehow to one's spouse, but I get the feeling that there was a blogging shorthand lesson that I missed.

DH means dear husband. No lesson, I've just sort of picked it up. DD = dear daughter; ds = dear son; dgd = dear grand daughter... etc. mil, yes, mother-in-law.
Cool; thanks...now I can tell who folks are talking about! As for me, I'll stick with initials since I've kind of cobbled together my own sort of family (probably isn't a shorthand set for "my mother's husband", huh?).
Let's see: dsf (dear step father???) sounds pretty close to dcsf, though doesn't it? :)
Close...except I'm too strange!
He married my mom when I was an adult and, he and I agreed, he doesn't need any more kids and I don't need any more male parental figures (I've got one *great* parent, my mother, that's all I need)...so, he is my mother's husband, but *not* my step-father.
It is funny to hear S try to tell people how W is related to him. It was also funny when W and I worked together and people tried to puzzle out how we were related. Also amusing? The four of us (CFS, W, S and me) all have different last names. I'm easily amused :-)

My husband's grandmother married his grandfather when my dh was a small child. Though she was honored as "Grandma," by the grandchildren, she was never, ever a step-mother to their parents, always Rosella. "You had a mother," she told them. "I'm not her." Seemed to work pretty well -- and this was 50 years ago.
She sounds like my kinda person! :-)
I've known W since I was a small child, but he is always W or, if pressed, "my mother's husband".
Have always found it interesting how few familial words we have in this culture compared to others. Aunt and uncle, for example, I know the Vietnamese have different words depending on if you are talking about an aunt that is the mother's sister or father's sister.

Experimenting with "buy now" (rather than auction) items on Ebay (they are giving sellers reduced fees if you jump through certain hoops between now and end of the year). Wanna see? http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/handee123 … omZQQ_mdoZ
Photo today is one I found on my (messy) desk while my computer was being worked on the other day and I resorted to cleaning my office. It is S when he was 2 and was given to me by my mother-in-law. I think it was the next year when he got glasses...
