My family and I, are what you would call, a Blended Family. To be honest, I don’t see a need to specify if we are family, or a blended family, as to be honest we are simply, FAMILY!
The truth is, we are not related by blood, but our hearts have become ONE, and we have established unique relationships with each other based on appreciation.
When you bring two families together, in a blended way, I don’t see why it should be any different from bringing two families together in a marriage where there are no children involved. Either way, it is two different families coming together.
I know the children may not have been a result in this new blended family, but the way I look at it, by caring for these children, as if they were your own biologically, makes them your sons and daughters. The love you feel and share with these children is no different from the love you feel for your own children. At least, that is how I look at it.
It isn’t easy bringing two families together, there can be challenges, but if you remain true to who you are and your intentions which come from your heart, then over time things will improve.
Our family is unique; we love each other, we compliment each other with our personalities and we share great memories. Allowing growth and understanding in a blended family, will help not only the adjustment, but will also bring more love.

I couldn’t agree more. A family is a group of people who share ties–it doesn’t matter if those ties are legal, emotional, blood, or any of a whole host of other possible ties. In many ways, all families are “blended,” i.e. unique organisms made up of the component parts.

I have friends who are more like my family than blood relatives. I love this post because it reminds us that we don’t need an offical title, certificate or legal documentation to call others our family ❤️
