I think you need to let it go...you can't force a family, especially when the children are grown and on their own! Maybe you should make your own photo album of your life with your husband, and represent it the way you would like it to be expressed? I don't think your step son was trying to slight you; I just think he gave his father a gift he thought he would like. You didn't give some specific details that I think might be important, like your age, the son's age, how close all of you are normally, etc.--if we're talking about everyone being adults, and you and your husband getting together after he moved out on his own, it is possible that he just does not grasp the concept of you being part of his family? Not in a mean way, just in a kind of "out of sight, out of mind" kind of way? Regardless, I really do not feel this is worth getting upset over; cherish the love you have with your husband--the relationship and the commitment you have is with him and not his grown son!!
