Where do I start?
So, the stepmother diaries, here we are but where to begin? At the beginning I guess, when I was small.
When a little girl is growing up she has dreams of a pretty wedding and a happy family. Never does she imagine for one minute that one day she might become a Stepmother. It’s not something a girl thinks about, it’s not on the list of things to do in life..but here I am.
How did I get here? It’s a long old story, a sad one but lets just say that between an ex who didn’t want kids, a lot of wasted years, a tragic death and a genetic condition that poses a high risk of cancer, I met a man who can’t father kids and I fell for him. It was fated to be and I battled for a long time about having a family, or ‘how’ to have a family and time was ticking by. I wondered, through all that I had endured so far, the two children I had never had and the situation I was in, was someone trying to tell me that I was not meant to have kids of my own? I kind of give in to the belief of fate and karma as battling against your served plate of life goods can sometimes seem like a mountain to climb or a heavy burden to bare. Sometimes you have to just go with the flow.
So I flowed here, here I am. A Stepmother. WOW!
