Baby steps

Here I am.  Feeling like a newborn babe.  Trying to work out how to blog.  I've managed to get to the bit where I write something down so I'm feeling rather happy with myself.  
Why are you here?  I hear from the distance.  

Well I'm here to tell my story.  In the hope it might strike a chord with someone else in a position not unlike mine.  
I'm the step mum to two beautiful girls and a mum to a little cherub.  How did I get here?  
Well it's a long and complicated story and it's one that I'm sure others can relate to.

It all started in 2008.  I met a man. A very complicated man.  A widowed man with two little girls...

This is not him but I want to keep him anonymous so...hence...the bird.
