Blended families means just that. It was like putting the ones you love so much into a blender, hitting the pulverize button, intending for something good to happen, but tearing the hearts of those we love so much into many pieces. Their lives turned upside down and inside out, at least that was the case with our family. But when you choose to believe, life takes you through the trials, troubles, and heartaches so many of us share, but it also gives you a reason, and a hope of the amazing strength that lives within each and every one of us.
