I Cant Imagine What Its Like Being You In The Circle Of Us.

Im not sure what its like to be a step father but I can only imagine from my own perspective in the dynamics of this family, that it's probably been the hardest job on earth.  I don't think I would have survived if the roles were reversed, given the tools of my upbringing that I would have had to work with.  What I admire most about your commitment is how you always seem to put the energy of your love for us around everything else that trying to rip us apart.I have watched you over this time navigate a path that came with out directions, into a family that has continued over time to diminish & take away the role that you became.  Sometimes the universe unbeknownst to us, chooses the timing of a love to come into fruition regardless of the external forces, to teach its lessons in that kind of love.  I believe we have always been chosen in each life together, to show the world around us, this intimate most beautiful lesson, as difficult & painful as it's been.In the last 5.4 years, I have watched you love these daughters as your own flesh & blood, even in time you were left empty handed.  I have witnessed the pride in your fatherhood role, even when it was resisted & one sided, never giving up because your love always wins.  You have always maintained a constant in a most shape shifting arena, demonstrating a resilience while teaching these girls about the importance of your own personal boundaries.I cant imagine what its been like to be you in the circle of us, but I thank you for sticking around & never giving up on me & these beautiful souls.  Thank you For the constant understanding, strength, comfort, courage, compassion & love that has always flowed unconditionally within these challenging times. So today on this Fathers day I raise my grail of black liquid gold to you, for sticking with the vision of this divine love that we hold couragiously together for our family.I want you to know that it never goes unnoticed in my own eyes for who you are to these girls, what you do to provide & the sacrifices you did in to in order to be here now.  Thank you for always believing is me, in the girls, in our family & the dreams we share together! HAPPY FATHERS DAY!
