Two Mommas

Many people go to therapy because of issues with their mother. If you are like me you end up in therapy because of issues with two mothers. Yes, I have two mothers. Not in the way most people think when they hear me say this either. When I tell people, I have two mothers and one father they usually think my parents where polyamorous or that I have two mothers that are a lesbian couple and my father was a sperm donor. Neither guess is true. I was adopted so I have one biological mother and one adopted mother.

Love/Hate
I have always had a love/hate relationship with the Cosby show. I went through times of watching it all the time to vowing to never watch it again. 
During the times I would watch it all the time they seemed so perfect. I wanted this kind of family so badly. From the outside looking in we looked like them.
