When I was a little girl, dreaming of the way my life would be as a woman, I never dreamed of this. I thought of being married and having four kids in a beautiful home. I have always liked the saying, “If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.” Man, was he laughing when I planned my future.
I didn’t know then that God had a better future for me than I could have dreamed. I now have three amazing kids, a husband I couldn’t have ever hoped for, a wife in law that I wouldn’t trade, a friend in my LNGs stepdad, and so much more.
I know it can seem hard to believe and many may think it is just a show rather than reality, but it is my life. Let me put it into perspective for you all…
My FNB daughter looks forward to her siblings being with us but loves when they come with their mom and stepdad. The bond for my family is so strong that my FNB has asked what she calls my wife in law because she is family and most family have names: aunt, uncle, dad, mom, papa, etc. We haven’t come up with that name yet but it is deserving.
I couldn’t have dreamed of this life but it is far better than I could have imagined. God knows what he is doing and we often can’t see his hands working in our lives. We must have faith and strive to see what others may not. Some may see my life as complicated, and I am not saying that it isn’t but what they don’t see is all the love we share. My family is unique and something I wouldn’t trade.
Being Blended is Splendid
