To my Step Mom.
Thank you for being there when my biological mother was too out of her mind on drugs to realize what she was missing.
Thank you for reminding me that she honestly knew no better, and that her actions were not intended, just consequential to her reasoning.
Thank you for being the example that she was never able to be, and remembering that we never had that kind of love before; therein finding yourself able to forgive us our spiteful and angry actions against you.
Thank you for being patient, and allowing us to discover our own lie every time we told you " you're not our "REAL" mom"... It took us all our lIves to realize that you really were, in love if not by blood.
Thank you for seeing our potential a greater than our failures, even when we could not comprehend what you saw.
Thank you for never choosing your own children above my sister and I, even when we conspired to turn them against you; regardless of Dad favoring Julia above us all.
Thank you for defending us against our dad when he in anger turned his back on us; all of us each in turn.
Thank you for never waive ring in your love for each of us, even though we were not your own.
Thank you for being whom God called you to be, no matter what the circumstances were, or what trials lie before you.
Thank you for being my mom; my real mom.
