Search Results: hard to pick

I have a choice of going darker or lighter. I have chosen either a dark blonde or a cool red. I want something to make my skin less ruddy but also bring out the orange in my eyes which is hard because these requests have opposite solutions. cool tones will help my skin, but dull my eyes and warm tones will brighten my eyes but make me look even pinker! For reference, here are pictures from google which look pretty close to what my skin and eye colour is. I have naturally light brown hair and dark eyebrows.

I was a single mom but now have a partner.

My biggest challenge as a single mom was balancing bills and the fear of not having enough for the kids to eat. It was emotionally hard when there was not enough for special occasions. It was hard but I managed to keep us afloat. All the necessities were covered.

As a blended family the challenge was learning how to co-parent. The children picked up quickly that I might say no but if they ask their new stepdad next or first he most likely would say yes. As the new stepdad he wanted to please them and they caught on to that.
So now we have an established rule that we will give them our opinion but they have to ask the other too. Overtime my partner became comfortable recorrecting the children. Mind you he was only able to be seen as a disciplinarian because my children were under the age of 5.
