In the beginning I kept waiting for the honeymoon period of love and patience and gifts and sweetness to wear off and the "real" family to show up (like mine) but 10 years later they are still awesome and I LOVE them and wonder how I got so lucky. Maybe because I had such a shitty family life growing up? It took me a while to fully embrace them, and realize that families that are nice and loving do exist and aren't just pretending. Once I did that, I really was able to become part of the family. :)A Buns Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12611682053507407292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-37673196988577615652009-01-05T13:58:00.000-08:002009-01-05T13:58:00.000-08:00I see you're a fellow Shana/Zen-follower!

I REFUSED to accept anything in the way of motherly affection from her as she tried to help me deal with my grief. I was in my early thirties, nine months pregnant, and basically stomping my foot and screaming YOU'RE NOT MY REAL MOM like the 9-year-old child in some Julia Roberts blended family movie.<BR/><BR/>I got over it.
