You have just graduated college and have moved to a big city to pursue your dream career. To support yourself, you work two jobs. At one of those jobs you befriend an older woman who is a widow and single mother to a four-year-old girl. You and the little girl bond, and soon you become a part of her life and she in yours.

A year later, you’ve finally gotten your career started and have settled into a decent apartment, which is close to your friend and her daughter. One night, you’re babysitting the little girl while her mother goes out with her boyfriend. The mother never returns. Several days go by and child services comes and takes the little girl away, who is screaming and crying. You’re also devastated and quickly file for custody of her. Because you are not a blood relative and unmarried, the courts deny you custody. However, after six months and no other next of kin is found, and only after an extensive series of evaluations by child services is the little girl turned over to you. After the incident, you decide that she deserves stability. So, you move out of your apartment and buy a condo in the suburbs of another town. You and your foster daughter quickly settle into a new routine.

When your foster daughter is six years old, you enroll her in kindergarden at the local elementary school. She is a very cute and outgoing child, but complains of being picked on by older students. One day, she comes home and talks your ear off about a boy, a grade ahead of her, who stood up for her against a mean student. She continues to talk to you about this student, so much so that you look to get in touch with the boy’s family. You look it up in the phone book and find the boy’s house phone’s number. A man answers, you introduce yourself, and ask after his son. The man sounds nervous, until you explain why you are calling and that you were wondering if it would be OK to arrange a play date for the two children. He agrees and the four of you meet at a local playground. While the kids are playing, the two of you are talking. The man–who is only a few years older than you, single, and very attractive–explains that the boy is his foster son. The boy’s biological parents had been close friends of his and when they died in a car accident, and the little boy’s great-grandmother couldn’t care for him anymore, he took the boy in and adopted him. You tell him your story with your girl. The two of you hit it off quickly and the four of you–you, him, and the two kids–start spending a lot of time together.

On the same day as your wedding, you adopt his son and he adopts your daughter. After the wedding, you spend two weeks with the kids on one vacation and another two weeks on your honeymoon while the kids stay with your new mother-in-law.
