Divorce is Not the End of the Road
No, I didn’t see it coming. The year was 1999, and my wife and I had been married for 8 years. We had two children, aged 3 and 9 months. I was working full-time for one of Australia’s major banks, and my wife had resigned three years prior to become a full-time mother.

Trish MannPublished 2 years ago in Families5 Crucial Lessons to Make Your Blended Family a Success
I was 49 years old when I met my future with a new family, and wow, did it open up a whole new world to figure out.

The Deep End
My babysitter had a pool at her family’s house. It made the occasion you and Mom needed to leave me with her a treat. My memories are fond of jumping on a trampoline, whirling down curved stairs, watching The Ninja Turtle VHS tapes, and learning to swim in the shallow part of that pool.
