Just Learning To Live

Monarch Luella Fraiser...(yes like the butterfly) she had such a beautiful spirit and made everyone laugh. Her mother told her that the thought of having a baby girl on the way gave her butterflies; hence her name. Monarch loved that her name came with such a beautiful story. That was until her mother started drinking and doing drugs. Her mother always had weird men over and most of them as well as her mother did some life-changing things to say the least to Monarch. At the age of only 6, Monarch's mother was arrested for drugs and child endangerment. She then started to hate her name and insisted that everyone called Mimi. She was placed from foster home to foster home to foster home for a good 7 years. When loving pair of husbands bring her into their almost perfect family thinking she might be their missing piece, they go through ups and downs, romance and lots of little surprises along the way..........
