Welcome to my Parenting Blog! Four years ago when I created the initial blog page, I was convinced this was going to be my way of making easy money- Online Rebates! Needless to say, I wrote two blog posts that have no common theme or idea and walked away from Blogger for years. This blog has not seen any real traffic yet and it is almost four years old. In coming back to Blogger, I have decided that I am going to write Blogs on things that are important to me. I have a passion for writing so it is important for me to have a creative place to express that writing ability. Money is no longer the object. I simply want to share my experiences, advice, tips, and stories as I travel this crazy path called Parenthood.
We have a large blended family! Let's start with my fiance, Ben. He drives for Martin Brothers Distributing sometimes 60 hours a week. Nathan is my 13 year old step son who has grown six inches in the past six months. His voice and interests are changing rapidly. Nathan visits us every other weekend and sometimes for a vacation in the summer. Julianna(10), Kaylee(9), and Brookelyn(6) are my three beautiful biological daughters. This group keeps me on my toes and drives me crazy already. I have full custody of my ladies, so they are only gone every other weekend.What am I going to do in 5 years!
Four year old Nicholas is my second step son. Ben has 50/50 custody of Nicholas. So we have him every other week from Sunday to Sunday. I think that Nick is going to be the one that I learn the most from because he is extremely behind for his age. Parenting him takes a whole other set of patience. Finally, Brayden, my sweet baby boy, is almost 2 years old. He talks and talks and is way too smart for his own good.
Now that we have covered the basics, I cannot wait to share the trials and tribulations of our large blended family. My only hope for this blog is that people find it helpful, interesting, and entertaining.
