Chapter Text

I don't know why I let Rachel try and talk to me sometimes. She does nothing more than ruffle my feathers on a good day. I think she knows how to get under my skin. I don't ever want Steve to think I ask him to do things for the kids that I should be doing instead. We are partners in this family and I don't ever want him to feel taken advantage of.
After all of the energy and tears and countless hours, it's kind of bittersweet to say goodbye to Steve's already but I know it is what is best for us at this moment in time. Maybe when Charlie is out of school, we can revisit this idea. We made it work, Steve and I, against all odds and everyone telling us it would be a flop. We made it work. I love that man.
