• A new beginning for you and your husband: Yes, this will be a new beginning for you as well as your husband.

• Enjoy your new life: Ensure that whatever happens, you take your new chapter as a new hope for a better life. Take your new family into your confidence and let them know about your feelings and emotions. You will be pleasantly surprised as they begin to understand you and learn to accept you into the family.
