Open letter to my Step-Dad

Subject: Open letter to my Step-Dad
Date: 16 Oct 2016

I guess being a step-dad is super difficult. not that i have any idea what it is like, but i'm sure it shakes up your life a bit when instead of a typical romance you get a package deal. I know it is super typical for a child to have an evil- step parent because i guess nobody wants their biological parent to be replaced. All the fairytales and stories teach us to loathe step-parents, never treat them like actual parents and defy their authority. In the beginning i definitely wanted to follow this trend. But i guess you dont realise the true wonder of a step-dad or mom until you stop. stop thinking of them as an extension to your family and start thinking of yourself as an extension to their love story. You didnt choose me. but i came along anyway. And yet here i am. Living in your house and seeing you everyday. It takes this to understand how incredible you are. You treat me as if i was a blessing, a planned addition to your life later on, and i think it is truely incredible that you have enough love to go around, planned or not.
