The creator of these cards is Brenda McCants, a “stepmom”, an “adopted mom”; a “second wife”; a “first wife”, whatever adjective you want to tag. Brenda started a journal 14 years ago when she remarried. She and her husband blended a six-year old son, an eight-year old son, a ten-year old daughter, and a twelve-year old son. Needless to say, “blending moments” were many. Brenda saw the need to create a card that would send a message to her stepchildren and cards that her children could use for their stepdad and other stepfamily with humor. The illustrations are based on cooking utensils and food because stepfamilies are truly “blending” and “cooking” all the time. Brenda speaks from the heart and personal experiences.  Her faith was the substance that carried her through the difficult moments, more particularly, Psalms 118:24:  "Today is the day the Lord hath made, rejoice and be glad in it".  Brenda found joy and humor in each day.  Even though blending a family can be difficult, it is what it is and we need to find joy in each relationship whether in a bad moment or glad moment. 

Statistics tell us that over 62% of all American families are labeled “blended”, whether from death of a spouse, or divorce. It is a sad statistic; but one we have to address in every facet of life. Brenda hopes that whatever your needs are, that these cards will lighten the intensity of “blending moments”. Remember, it is what it is!
