I know you are truly thankful for that and I'm sure that made it less tramatic emotionally speaking for you growing up as well. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for reading and I pray that you will be encouraged each day with any challenge you may face.thestepmomlifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14071325271682491621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-576511937535677675.post-73062914770547306762008-10-24T11:05:00.000-05:002008-10-24T11:05:00.000-05:00When my father married for a second time, I briefl...When my father married for a second time, I briefly had a lovely Stepmom. I adored her. I lived with them short term. She made me feel loved, special, and accepted into the family. I never felt like an outsider, nor did I struggle to fit in. I was blessed to have her wonderful example to follow, when many, many years later, I married for a second time, and became a custodial Stepmom.<BR/><BR/> I definitely model myself a lot after my Stepmom, and my Mother. Both women respected one another, and I was never pitted against either side, or harrassed or guilted for loving both of my Mom's. I was free to call both of them Mom, and free to have a loving relationship with both of them.<BR/><BR/> Truly with all of the horror stories I read, I had no idea at the time, just how lucky I was. <BR/><BR/> All of that to say, thanks for sharing your experience. It reminded me of mine, and it reminded me how much impact a person setting a good example can make, in another person's life.<BR/><BR/> TheaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-576511937535677675.post-12621387432019577662008-10-16T12:03:00.000-05:002008-10-16T12:03:00.000-05:00I am glad you were able to have the "chance" encou...I am glad you were able to have the "chance" encounter to help you on your path. I have no experience with step other than what I have gone through - so I learn step by step or through others.macochahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04541898608174941098noreply@blogger.com
