vanillamagickI was on the phone with my mam this afternoon, and she told me that she thought it had been too long since I posted on my blog. So, here I am, posting on my blog. Hope you enjoy it, Mam.
I'm not sure I have anything to blog about. I do have new followers though (*waves* hi!), so maybe a quick refresh of the family, since it's something people do get confused about and I can completely understand why
Regan is my 14 year step-daughter. She's a whirlwind of energy, I swear the only time she stops is when she's asleep. She loves sport, dance and bakingand has unfortunate tastes in pop music and boybands. She wants to be a... well last time I checked it was sociology, and she even had her choice of university and course plotted out.
Her mother Shaine was the love of my life, we were together from our teens until Shaine died at in 2007. She was depressed and had a history of drug problems, she was battling it, but something came up in therapy that she couldn't deal with, and she took her own life.
One of my best friends, Craig is Regan's biological father. She spends every weekend with him and his boyfriend Jimmy. They are both fully active fathers to her, and spoil her rotten (not that I don't)
Caden Bryce is my almost 2 year old son - his birthday is in 11 days. He loves cars, sleeping, eating and babbling. He follows Regan around as much as he can.
I do not know who is father is. I was raped, and fell pregnant from it. I couldn't bring myself it have an abortion. I thought about it long and hard, and found myself unable to. My way of looking at it is that Caden Bryce is an innocent, the circumstances surrounding his conception are not his fault. I can't imagine not having him in my life.
Erin is the other person I talk about a lot. She's my girlfriend. We've been together just over two years and she is my rock. She loves football, even if she supports an awful team. She loves sex, astrology, mythology, sci-fi and fantasy. She has the most beautiful bright blue eyes and accepts my raggedy family without question, has fitted it with us perfectly.
I also have an older sister, married with two daughter, who lives down on the south coast and I have a younger adopted sister who lives in Wales with Mam and Dad.
That's the basics of the 'about us' which should clear anything up.
Mam, is this a good enough post for you? Have I missed anything you think needs saying?
Is there anything YOU want to ask, dear reader?
