Blessed
I have truly been blessed with my integrated family. It took
me a long time to find a really great partner. I could have never been happy
with someone I could push over and conversely I couldn’t be happy with someone
who would try to walk all over me. We have a good balance - a little give - a little
take and occasionally some disagreement. These things often work themselves
out. All this I find perfectly normal.
I am also blessed with 2 beautiful step-daughters, whom I
like to call my bonus daughters cause they were a bonus when I married their
father. They are beautiful and smart and have partners of their own that work
very well with them. I have 2 great grandkids and another on the way.
I am also happy that both of my parents are still around and
still are able to get around and have all their faculties. A few aches and
pains but basically healthy.
The funny thing is that while I was looking for a partner -
I would put character traits that I liked in people in an imaginary hat (in my
head)… There seemed to be quite a lot of them piled up in the hat over the
years. When I met my husband I started noticing that he had the traits that I
had put in my hat. I thank the fates that brought him and I together and that
listened to my “want” list. My youngest bonus daughter thanks the fates that
brought me to her - I thank the universe for listening.
