Filling the Void

As a Post Script to my previous post, I’d like to give a ton of credit and admiration to my loving Mother and Step-Father, who not only filled the void left by my dead-beat father but made me happy, healthy and made sure I had a good life. My mom is a very strong and moral person who made sure me and my brother were not affected so negatively by the divorce and nurtured us, practically by herself, for many years. I owe all that I am to my wonderful mom. I am a great parent by her lead and example of what a great and loving parent should be. I cannot thank her enough for all that she endured and persevered through emotionally and that through her strength we came out better than OK.

And much love and thanks also for my Step-Father who I also learned that, you don’t have to be related to be a great parent. I also lead by his example of what a good and moral parent should and should not be. He may not have the same genes as me but I am proud and honored to be called his Son. I cannot imagine my life without him and his support. He has been by our side longer than my biological father has and is my one, true father.

I love them both very dearly and I take pride knowing they have a wonderful son who became a great husband and father himself.
