Like most men, my ex husband was blind to my growing feelings of isolation until I gave up on our marriage after only 4 years. Thankfully he met beautiful Anastasia while she was visiting family in Sydney, their friendship eventually blossoming into long distance romance despite the huge cultural & geographical distance. After a while, Anastasia decided to leave her life in Ukraine to marry Jamie knowing that this involved becoming an instant stepmother to our three daughters when they were to dad’s. Our daughters are blessed to have a step mother that loves them but doesn’t meddle at all.
