What’s Going on Here?

My five-year-old daughter adored Mike. They had a great connection and things were going well. But of course, the night before the wedding, she says, "I don't want you to marry Mike." I was blindsided. "What's going on here?" I interviewed Kim Anderson and her husband, Mike, for the FamilyLife Blended podcast. Boy did life throw them a curve. It's fairly common for the weight of a new marriage to cause hiccups in kids. Don't panic, just reassure them as you walk through adjustments together.
