Thank you for accepting me into your life, stepson

Of all the things in life that have surprised me, loving and caring for someone else’s son just as much as I would my own definitely surpasses all of the other surprises I’ve experienced in life.

The amount of joy you have brought to my life since you became a part of it is indescribable. Thank you for being the kind, sweet, welcoming young man that you are and for accepting me into your life so wholeheartedly.

Happy birthday, my dear stepson.

Wishing you every happiness today, and I hope that everything you want from life happens just the way you want it to.
