Realizations and Reasons

Step Parent
I think about when we first met and I told him that I had an 8 year old. He did what I thought he would and he said ok no problem, if he only knew what that really entailed. Within the first few months he was helping me get ready for dance recitals and birthdays and school plays.....not exactly what a bachelor has in mind for weekend activities. But he stuck with it. He poured love upon her and it just made me love him that much more.
Although, Jeremy fell in love with me he always understood and welcomed the fact that I was a prepackaged deal with Mikaela. I know that he loves her with all his heart and if Mikaela had been the only child we had he would have been thrilled. Over the past four years I've watched them grow closer. Each day I see their love, respect, and understanding blossom between with. Having a loving wonderful husband has meant so much to me but having a loving wonderful father to my little girl has meant the world and more to me!!

My Girls'
My Beautiful Mikaela. My wonderful little Mika Monkey.
At 21 had no idea what this amazing little girl would do to my life. At first there was so much fear, but the moment I held you in my arms there was nothing but joy and love and anticipation of the person you would be.
I have often told people that Mikaela is my "proof". She is my proof that God really does love me and that no matter how bad things might seem he sent me an angel to help guide me through.
She has been my best and at times my only truest friend. She is everything as a kid that I never had the confidence to be. I don't think she realizes that she truly is my universe and that the love that I feel for her is bigger than anything I have ever felt. As I sit back and watch the beautiful brave young woman that she is, I pray everyday that with the strength and love that I have given her all her dreams will come true....even the wild and crazy ones!
Hannah...my wonderful little bear.
