just wondering:

for all the stepparents out there, what do your stepchildren call you? Mine just calls me a diminutive version of my first name (Jenny, instead of Jennifer or Jen, for example).

My husband's sister is getting married next month and my stepchild calls my future sister in law auntie x. I just think it is funny she gets more formality that I do. I don't mind at all, as my stepchild also calls my sister auntie. DH and I figured it is better this way because when we eventually have children, my sister won't be auntie to one and not the other. Although I have noticed birth mother cringe when she hears my stepchild call my sister auntie.

sigh.....
