Meet the Mom that started it all..Part 2

Hi everyone! Here is the rest of the story I started last week.... My situation: I had been a “single-mom” for 10 years. My children and I had created a very close and special family unit. We basically grew up together. We did everything together, shared everything, we were as close as close can be (my claim to fame is that I coached my son’s little league baseball team, yes I was that kind of mom!). To bring someone else into our lives was quite a challenge, not to mention that the kids “real dad” was always very involved in their lives. If you have read any of the stepcards on our site you can tell it was very difficult and emotional for Rick as well as it was for us and not the easiest time in our lives but we are all better for the experience.

We’ve had our challenges, but we’ve made it through and come out on the other side of this adventure with two great kids we’re very proud of, a decent marriage and a great idea we hope will help others in our situation. I hope you agree. We hope you find this blog and our website helpful, and we hope to hear from you soon! Thanks so much for all of your comments and support!!!
