After the wedding comes real life. Going into any relationship involves some adapting, compromise and learning. On the other hand going into a relationship where children is involved is a different kind of world. See you get a package deal, two for the price of one. Which isn't a bad deal in my case but with every situation there are some trials and tribulations.
So after the wedding things have been great, but this is when real life comes. It's the time when you have to figure out combining everything because you are now one. In our situation we did not live together before and I moved across the country. Now that everything has settled and I'm having to coparent things start to get tricky. I ask myself what boundaries will I have, things I am uncomfortable doing including discipline and where do I fit in with a mother and child whom has only had each other. Its hard to come into a preset family, trying to fit in and change things at the same time. Blending families is not the easiest because there are many personalities that have to adjust to one another. Jealousy arises, tempers collide, emotions mix and we are left to try and build a bond around these things. We grow as a family, learn from one another and start new. It is all apart of life.
The road less traveled is not the easiest but it will be the best! Welcome to my new life!
