I’m no Lady Tremaine.

Numbers 3 through 7 know that Number 1 and 2 have a different mom than they do.

And Numbers 3 and 4 understand that my husband was married to someone else before we got married.

I’m wasn’t exactly sure how much Number 5, 6, and 7 really make sense of it all.

Yesterday Number 5 was filling Mo in on the details.

While she may not understand all the specifics, I think she has a pretty good explanation of the situation:

Number 5: Number 2 has two mommies.

Mo: Oh, really?

Number 5: Yes. Mommy is Number 2’s stepmom.

Mo: Uh huh.

Number 5: But she’s a good stop mom.

You know.

Not like Cinderella’s stepmom.

I’m not sure Numbers 1 and 2 would always agree, but that works for me.

Thanks, Disney.

Now if you could make a movie to explain the ins and outs of drugs, alcohol, bullying, sex, and mental illness, that would be great.
