My triangle obsessed friends in the land of Trifecta have a simple, yet very complicated, challenge this weekend: in only 33 words, write a story, with one of the words being "mother". This is called "Biology Be Damned"
Someday, Claire thought as her stepdaughter Anne stomped up the stairs, you'll learn that the woman who holds you when some small cruelty breaks your heart is your mother, biology be damned.
Daddies, too. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is really good! You made great use of your 33 words and made a really great point. I hope Anne learns it sooner rather than later.
ReplyDelete"when some small cruelty breaks your heart" ... Amen. This is awesome.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Biology has little to do with it, indeed.
ReplyDeleteGreat job!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully said.
ReplyDeleteTrue words.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up. Come back Monday for the new challenge.
So true, and yes, this does apply to step dads too.
ReplyDeletelove. naturally.
ReplyDeleteA lot said in so few words.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah. So very true. There are stepmothers who step up to the plate and who are very much mothers to their stepchildren, and those Moms don't get nearly enough credit.
