Thank you so so much for this! I am a new step mom of nearly a year. I am 25 and my now daughter is nearly 11 and looks nothing like me. People assume we are sisters, I've had strangers question if I'm lying when I say I am her mother and say I'm too young (I look 18 and she in her teens), and it's both uncomfortable and lonely at times because we are doing our best to learn how to be a family. <3 So. Thank. You.
Your sense of humor is wonderful. I suppose a few of these are "if you don't laugh, you might cry" moments, so good for you for shining a light on the humanity of all involved in these various situations. Great read.
This is a great read! You walked me through hard step-parent reality set under the umbrella of love and patience, which is a mother's gift to her children.
