I started this blog mainly because I feel like I am in a weirdly unique position. I eventually want to write a book, but I have so many ideas that I hope this will help me to focus all of them.
So here it is, my position...
I am my husbands third wife.
::gasp::
In this day, its not too strange, but there are some things that I feel are a bit... different that you would expect to be associated with that statement.
Not to be stereotypical, but we are both white, young (late 20s), and classified as "working poor" / "lower middle class"
So I guess I should begin with who we are.
I have one child, Ally*, and he has a total of 3 (Tabby*, Zoey*) (including the one we have together), from 3 different women. One is an ex-girlfriend (Jennifer* Zoey's mom)and one is an ex-wife(Tina*, Tabby's mom) (he was married in between but had no children).
I hold a bachelor's degree and work as a tutor and sub (when the work is available) and my husband, Lucas*, works as a manager for a major retailer in the area.
My parents (Gary* and Alyce*) have been married for almost 30 years, and I have a younger sister (also Jennifer*) who is married (Mark*) with a child from a previous relationship (Eve*).
His parents are divorced. His mother (Laura*), his father (Ben*) and his step-mother (Karen*). He has a brother (Brad*) who is divorced from (Tonya*) and has a child with her, (Kaitlyn*), but he is currently with a woman named (Amy*) who has a son (Grant*)
*Names changed to protect certain privacies
As you can see, we come from very different backgrounds.
But, I love him more than almost anything (Ally is up there too of course!)
Our life is crazy, hard, stressful, but full of love...
I'll try to update this as much as I can, because if someone else is ever in a position similar to mine, maybe they can learn from my mistakes.
3rd times the charm,
Nicky B <3
