I Have Always Been Your Daughter

You have never called me step I have always been your daughter No one ever thought of me as a step in your family Even though my mother married Daddy when I was two I have always belonged to all of you Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Petey I forgot I was a step until some weirdo mentioned it No one in our family because you would have never allowed that I have always been your daughter, and you have always been Daddy. I do not remember the first day I met you, for I have known you forever We are as close as any daughter and Daddy could ever be. I have no desire to meet my sperm donor; never think about him really. You are the kind of man who understands family, who exudes love. You are the kind of daddy every girl in the whole world would love to have. I am so lucky that my sperm donor stepped out, and Mommy found you. You are my real Daddy, Daddy. Always have been and always will be. I love you!

This was in tribute to the stepfathers and the stepmothers and the stepgrandmothers and stepgrandfathers who do an amazing job treating all of their children equally.
