Family Is Everything, No Matter How It Is Formed

We may not have the same blood type, but that doesn't mean we aren't related.
We may not look exactly the same, but we are still a family.
We may not have the same genes, but we were matched together.
We may not have the same personality but that doesn't mean we aren't alike.
We may not seem to belong together, but we found each other.
We didn't know this would happen, but it did.
Two worlds, Two cultures bound together by love.
We didn't know this 15 years ago, but now we know it was meant to be.
