This is a mini-series hosted by @laura.tremaine on IG. I’ve chosen to post my responses here & I hope you’ll play along.
#5 – I HAVE MIXED FEELINGS ABOUT…my biological family. I won’t go any deeper than that. I totally love and adore the family Si & I have created – we have some great friends who are our chosen family.
