“I asked Eloise on the way home from school last week if she remembered her dad, who died when she was only 2 and a half. After insisting she show me her ‘daddy book,’ I asked her if she remembered specifically what he felt like or if she remembered being around him. To which she responded with the simple question of, ‘Which…?’ And then ‘no.’ She doesn’t remember him. To see her already loving and seeing Dustin as a dad figure to her is the sweetest thing, but to realize she legitimately doesn’t remember her dad breaks my heart. I am thankful, too, because Dustin so sweetly stepped up in a way these children consider him a dad to them as well. Blending a family- it doesn’t happen on accident.”

Nicole, there must be a lot of days when your emotions are all over the place but I am so thankful that you found love again and that your blended family is so special. Dustin is a rare guy who can bring your children into his heart just like he was their birth Dad and your children and his child are blessed that they have both of you to show them what love is. Be happy and know that this is God’s plan. Isn’t He great?
