You are right my dreams of my marriage was not two already children and a ex wife that I would have to communicate with on a regular basis. But God had other plans. I met your children and became thier friend. I fell in love with them and started to think and treat them as my own. I never thought I could love two other children like my own child unconditionally. But I do.
Over time of this new family made I have watched your children reach out to you and you have not reciprocated. I have watched your daughter time over time seek one on one time with you even if it is staying home and doing each other nails or having a girls day in town.
I fill in and take her to get her toes done, hold her hand while she gets a shot or watch her fall apart and hold her. Even though it hurts because I am often in the shadows. I am not you. I will never be you in her eyes. She needs you. She yearns for you. As a mother who fell in love with your children please take time and embrace what you have. You are losing the precious time and memories that are meant to have.
