This is what life is about—being as happy as you can for as long as it’s possible. There’s only one thing I’m missing here, and that’s my best friend, Yara. She’ll be here to visit next week, and I can’t wait to spend some time with her. She flies back between France and here, but she’s been spending a bit more time in France lately. I wonder if she’s met a Frenchman, but I can’t be too sure.
It’s just crazy how much time has passed and how things have changed. In the beginning, I felt like I didn’t belong in this family, but I’ve never been more wrong. I’ve only ever belonged here, and I’m so glad I took a leap of faith to get to know them. If I never had, I never would have met the man of my dreams or had my beautiful children.
