Learning to BLOG

-


  I have talked about starting a blog for years. I may not have always talked about it out loud but I at least talked to my self about it in my own head. ( Admit it we all talk to ourselves!) well here it is my first blog post and what’s it about BLOGGING. The blog today is really just going to be me rambling about my family, my self but also in general in the end of it all I would love to know what you would like my first true blog to be about.

  First let me tell you a bit about the name of my blog Blended Stone’s. Why is it called Blended Stone’s? My family the Stone family consist of my husband Paul Stone, myself Tyger-Lynn Stone and our five children. We have a blended family and by blended I mean my husband Paul had two little girls when we married, I had two little boys then together we had a son that blended us all together. So, that’s where the name Blended Stones originated.

  In my mind as things get going and I learn more about Blogging I feel like the blog will be about everyday struggles of being a blended family, about our new adventures of living on a farm, the struggles and rewards of having five children, crafting, books I am reading and last but not least  juggling the sixth child my husband. I am open to topics or opinion post as well. I love subscription boxes so I might do some fun reveals on those too.

  Share with me what you would like to be my first fun blog post. Ask me questions about my family or our life style or of things you know I have experienced. I am an open book I love to share my life with people and let me everyone know that life in general is a struggle and others have experienced it as well.

  There is always something interesting going on at the Stone household. For instance my youngest who is three just started preschool, my husbands new best bud is our new neighbor Mr. Riggs the farmer and he is learning from Mr. Riggs how to milk cows and goats, my middle son is 9 and he fell 15 feet out of a tree just today with out catching himself and had a panic attack right afterwards and I am learning to start a fodder food supply for our chickens. That’s just some of the many shenanigans you will get to read about in the Blend Stone’s blog so stay tuned for the next blog post. Also, don’t forget to share what you would like for it to be about. 

Meet my Family The Stones or as I refer to them Blended Stones

WE HAVE TEENS HELP

I absolutely love my children. Even though I have both a threenager and teenagers in the same house hold. Some days I don't know which is harder having a threenager or the teenagers. At least my threenager still wants to cuddle and wants dad and mom when he is feeling sad or hurt. The teenagers on the other hand. They only want to cuddle when they want something from you or if you are doing something for them. Also how different are boy and girl teenagers... wow just wow are they different. My husband Paul and I we are in this together to raise these humans.  Our teenager girl is the oldest and she is very similar to how I was as teenager. I liked to be left alone when I was at home. I wanted to hide in my room, talk on the phone and play with my hair and makeup and that's how our Kenzie  who is 13 is. My grandmother who raised me in my teenage years thought something  was wrong with me at that age and took me to a therapist. My therapist saw me three times total only to

Part Two: Letter to Bio- Mother From: Step Mother

First of all thank you to all who read, commented, shared, like and messaged me about my last blog post Part One. There are so many different situations life puts us in it was nice to hear the variety of stories and life events. So THANK YOU for sharing yours with me. After reading other step parents responses to my blog it’s a general consensus that we as step-parents do not feel adequate and we feel less of a parent. None of us ever feel like we are enough.  We do not know the correct boundaries, no one wrote us a book on the proper way to be a step parent.   I did another poll on Facebook  my question this time was “If you could say one thing to your child’s bio mom or dad what would it be?” Here where some of the responses: *Don’t talk to the children about adult issues.. it causes them stress and anxiety. *Don’t bad mouth the other parent. * Why have you not been hit by a bus? *Don't bad month my children. (Speaking about step parents own kids) * Treat kids equally.

Threenager Why I Fear Him

I fear my child sometimes! Why? He is THREE! To some of you that might mean nothing at all. Let me tell you though THREE is scary. Who in this world made up that there was such a thing as the Terrible Two's? That person might not have had kids because two is easy peasy. When a child is two they are still learning to communicate and they seem innocent and sweet. Three hits and  it is a whole new ball game. They can very well verbally communicate! They know that there care consequences to there actions and guess what? THEY DON'T GIVE A FLYING RATS BUTT! You read that right. These Threenagers are testing you in every way possible just to see how long it takes for you to yell and pull your hair out. Why? They think it is Funny! At this age to them we are just their Minions. We walk on egg shells fearing what might set them off.  I currently have to teens in the house so I know what a teenager is like and the mood swings that come with it but THREE is worse. A Huffi
