My Life Is Perfect.
I cheated. When I first started dating my husband, I had a 7-year old son, Joseph. I saw the way he treated my son and knew he would be an incredible dad. It was sort of like being able to look into a crystal ball into the future.
Fast foward 7 years and now he is also a father to two of his "own" sons. Moments like these, when I walk past their room and see him reading to the boys, my heart just melts. I try not to be jealous that I didn't get to the story first, and appreciate that he is a hands on dad.
When I showed my husband this picture, I expected him to like it, after all I loved it. But when he told me the only thing missing was Joe (my now 14 year old) in it, I feel so lucky that this crazy adorable man came into our lives. This man that treated my son like his own, yet respected the fact that Joseph HAS a dad and didn't try to get in the way of that. I am glad I could see ahead to the future. I am totally blessed.
