My Story

I have decided I need to tell my story mostly for myself but also for those of you who are curious about what happened between me and G 9 yrs ago. I was told by my loving husband that I didn't need to tell it unless I was ready too and wanted too. So I have waited and am finally ready to tell it all.

I was dating G for 4 months when I was 15. In May of that year I found out I was pregnant. I was so afraid of telling G that I just never talked to him again. I was afraid that I would be told he didn't want me to have it. I married another guy who said he would take care of the baby like it was his own. Everything went fine until the day the baby was born. The first time I looked in her precious face I saw her true daddy's eyes looking up at me. I was only 16 when she was born. I had driven by G's parents house a couple of times and even had slowed down once thinking about stopping and then chickened out. I mean there would have been no denying she was G's child when I walked up to the door and I wasn't even sure how to tell someone that this was their child or even grandchild. I had seen G one time when the baby was 4 months old in Wal-Mart. I was so scared. He was hanging out with someone we went to school with and she kept asking me questions about who the baby's daddy was. I still wasnt sure how to tell G so I just ran away from the situation. I had always wondered what had happen to G but was to scared to call to be able to find him. I always promised my self that when I had found him again I would tell him no matter what. But life went on and I married another man who was just there for safety. I told him about G when we got married and told him that I would never love him because I lost my heart and soul a long time ago to Bethy's dad. A year later I had my youngest daughter and something inside of me broke. I knew I just had to find G and at least let him know that he had a daughter. I looked for months on the internet and then one day logged into classmates and his name was on there. So I sent him a message to please get ahold of me and well he did. We decided after talking for about a week that we wanted to see each other again, so a couple weeks later I drove up there to see him and to do the Dna test. On my way up there I had a serious accident, because I was dumb and didn't pull over when I started getting tired. I just wanted to get there and see him. I ended up rolling my car 3-4 times. I broke three discs in my back and fractured my skull. G came to the hospital in Las vegas and the minute he showed up I knew we were meant to be together and I stopped hurting so bad. Him just being there made me feel so much better. I know I must have been a horrific site but he still told me I was beautiful. He hugged and kissed me which hurt so bad because I almost bit through my bottom lip but at the same time it just felt right.
Well I moved to ely last year as most of you know. The hardest part was waiting for the test to come back even though we both knew without a doubt that Bethy was G's daughter and it was even harder for me when we told his parents. But they just accepted it. His whole family did. Everytime they would come to visit I would feel so bad when they would play with the kids for keeping their granddaughter from them for so many years.
I just want to thank everyone for accepting me into the family. I want to cry everytime I see G's parents with K cause they have took her in like one of their own and she loves them to death. I feel so bad for taking the time away from them they could have had with Bethy had I let everyone know sooner. Even great grandma has accepted me with no questions asked about the whole situation. She is such an awesome and understanding woman. She says she may have missed out on some of Bethys life but will be there for K's life. And I hope she is. I guess it is how my wonderful mother in law put it the week before our wedding. Back then we might not have made it, but now it is the right time. We have both grown up so much and went through so much junk that we know we are meant to be together and take care of each other.
Sorry for going on I just need to finally get it all out. If anyone has any questions about any of it please feel free to ask. Thank you all so much for accepting me and my children in to your awesome and huge family. I love you guys.
