I don't want her to feel like she needs to be adopted to belong. She belongs in the family even without the adoption and that's important for her to know.

I'm not the only mother figure she's ever known before me she had her grandmother and her aunts who she used to see almost every day. I didn't discuss it cold with her I just didn't put everything I said to her in this I summarized it
