Famsgiving! Part 1

This means I have to share my (son) with his wife and their families, but as long as we get to spend time with them is what matters most.

They live in the same state, but not in the same area. He’s three and half hours away from us. We do see each other throughout the year but not as much as I would want to. He’s married with a family that I adore, and that means he has to give attention to her side as well as his side of the family. If your perplexed don’t be he’s mine by love and marriage, but I would never call him bonus or step-son. He shares a chamber of my heart just like my other kids. We have raised him to grow into this loving, supportive,and dedicated son; I’m beyond proud of him.

So, how does your family dynamics work in your home? For some, it’s not easy and there’s no one stop shop for those families that are blended. What I have found to work is communication, maturity and respect. Whether or not if we as adults are learning to navigate or the kids, we all can learn to respect each other and grow in order for the child to grow. I hope that I never made my son feel like he had to choose me over his mom and vise versa.

Blended doesn’t work you say well try looking at it from the other view 💎💎💎💎💎💎

• More adult support: Children gain additional loving adults in their lives, such as bonus parents and grandparents, who can offer guidance, care, and a wider network of support.
• New sibling bonds: Children can gain new siblings, which can be like gaining new friends and lead to new shared interests and fun experiences.
• Larger social circle: The family unit is expanded, creating more opportunities for connections and social interaction for everyone.
