If the psychic I had visited over 20 years ago had warned me that I would be divorced and remarried, raising three biological children AND two step-kids…FULL TIME…
I would have laughed in her face and demanded the gold coins laid across her palm right back!
Me? NO WAY!
I was going to be buried next to the father of my children (which, by the way were only going to be DAUGHTERS). That is what I pictured for my life. I planned it. It would be…
I was SURE of it…
WRONG.
On both counts.
Kind of.
My first marriage didn’t last. Nor did it produce two daughters. My first child was a boy. Then I had a girl two years later.
My (now) husband’s marriage produced a daughter, then a son.
OUR marriage produced a little boy.
And we have all five kids. FULL TIME.
So…
Assuming my life goes as I had originally planned:
I WILL be buried next to the father of my children.
And…
I AM the mother of two daughters…not to mention, three sons.
WE…are the modern day “yours, mine and ours”, blended family.
And…
the modern day NORM.

I totally understand. I never imagined that I would chose to be a stay at home mom to 3 children. My friends like to joke that I’m the mom of three children all born within one year on separate days who have different biological fathers. Truth be told they all have different biological mothers too, but the look some people give is kind of funny. But I wouldn’t change any of it.
Isn’t it funny how life works out? I guess I am like that psychic because for some reason I kept having this vision of me raising someone else’s children. Well, I was right! Who knew? But family is family, and family is unpredictable. More fun that way
who needs a regular, predictable family-LOL
