I know what I could have done but just like a habit that lingers it probably would have been no use. That doesn’t change my feelings about my half a Brady Bunch family because they occupied so much of my love, time, effort, heartache, frustration, impatience, intolerance, devotion and the closest I ever came to having children of my own. I have been rejected out of hand by some but there are those too that will remember what I did and that is my wife and my stepson. One day my daughter in law will forgive me as well. (Well maybe)
Sometimes love is just not enough.
What you did you did in love whether or not anyone every recognizes it or gives you credit for it. Your influence upon their lives is indelibly fixed within them for better or worse
