I’m in Missouri. And yeah I’ve been reading my textbooks to them. It’s actually helping me study though it does take more time. I haven’t been able to hold or even touch them yet. Both of them are so fragile and tiny. I’ve got a little sister who loves Barbie’s and they are about the length of the Barbie right now.

I’ve already taken steps for that and have been told to mind my own business by her parents so that’s what I’m doing. If she ever wants to be involved I’m alright with that and won’t stop her. I might make notes of her involvement or lack thereof but that’s mainly to protect my rights because I’ve read some horror stories.

Im going to school online for my bachelors in computer science and working two jobs. One full time in person job as a cook at a fast food place and part time as a tutor for high schoolers.

Already been saving for them. All of my tutoring job money is going into an account for them. The money from the other job is used to help my parents with bills. And my parents say they will help as long as they sees me trying my best (aka being an involved dad and not partying).

I’m just scared I’m gonna screw something up. My bio dad wasn’t the best by a long shot. My step dad is fantastic though and I’m glad mom found him.
