and of course you are. there are not a lot of people who would do what you are doing. raising someone else's child? that is a very selfless thing, so why would you even think it's a bad thing?

I guess because there's a resentment building behind it. Whether it's said or not, I know it's there. I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing. And if I had things to do over again, I wouldn't do a damn thing different. She's my kid now, too. And I love her as much as I do my Sara. She needed an adult in her life that not only gives some structure, but can be a friend too when it's appropriate.
