Just a few tips...
Things we have learned over the years:
~You're either going to California or you're not. All in or all out. ~Changes and compromise are going to take place. ~ You have to give to get and even sometimes then you get the short end of the stick. Just make sure you're intention is coming from the right spot so you don't build up a lot of resentment. ~When it comes to older kids/teens - leave the discipline up to the biological parent. ~Mistakes are going to happen and here again is where hopefully you will learn and choose to make changes or compromise for the betterment of the family unit. ~Practice forgiveness. ~Don't forget to be an individual. ~Don't forget to be a couple.
