Hi Cariad :-6
Welcome.
Sorry about your husband, he must have been young if your precious is only 3. Thats hard. Please just jump in and say whatever is on your mind. I think you will find this an easy place to enjoy yourself. If you have any troubles or need help feel free to pm me, no worries.
Go on now......jump in.

Wow.:-2 Talk about your heart-rending introductions! My name is Jives, resident struggling writer for these boards. Welcome. If you are just getting up the nerve to get back into the swing of things, I think you made a wise choice to start on the web.
And if you like people who won't judge you, and are here to have fun, talk, argue, and just interact as humans do, you couldn't have picked a better place.
Hmmm.. "Cariad" I like the sound of that.

Hi Cariard. I'm new to this forum too but I wanted to say hello. I sympathise with your story having been in the same situation myself. I was widowed in 1996 with my son and daughter and pregnant with a third child. I stayed alone for two years, then dipped my toe in the water and finally met my second husband. We've been together & married for eight years now and I took on his four girls. Now there's just my 3 kids at home and hubby. There is someone out there for all of us, this is what I firmly believe. I draw strength from my husband that has passed on and am a rock to my children and my husband.
Don't ever feel like you're alone because you're not. If you feel like talking please don't hesitate to contact me.
