'I worried you would look around and find me wanting. As my mother had. As my classmates had. As I had.'
It is the nut of fear I have carried with me since that first ultrasound. Twins. Two daughters. Girls. How the hell was I going to raise girls?
Of course, you hadn’t yet realized that the best friend one of you had in kindergarten dumped you because her mom couldn’t handle the fact that you had two moms. You were still horribly hurt. And I felt helpless. I have seen your resiliency in action ― moving to my hometown of Las Vegas after your other mom moved to Florida, after my newspaper had to stop publishing, after we lost our house in a financial crisis that our multiracial suburb took longer to recover from.
And so, I have raised you in the safe space I needed, thinking it would give you the ability to move through the world with more ease.
