Life can get so messy
The blended family thing
Hinges on all parties agreeing
Schedules aligning
And other inconveniences
That can come out of nowhere
You never plan for this to happen
But here you are
With someone who's already
Been married and divorced twice
Just as broken as you are
Trying to make the best
Of the situation
And you realize
This is life
Your life
Always testing your limits
Now you find yourself
Having to work out your kids' problems
With the ex's new wife
Deciding on schools
And planning family trips
It looks like a mess
From the outside
But it is coming together
Like you had hoped and prayed
And that's really all you can do
In a world where everyone is broken
And the blended family
Is the new norm
