I always thought we were a happy family until my son told me he had a \u201csecret sister.\u201d At first, I thought it was just one of those things kids do to draw your attention. But when I explored more thoroughly, I found something that transform my world upside down.<\/p>\n
Mike and I have been together for five years now. Our son, Luke, is four years old with Mike\u2019s charming smile and my stubborn chin.<\/p>\n
Until recently, I thought we were absolutely happy.<\/p>\n
It all began last Tuesday.
\nThe marketing agency where I work had wrapped up a major campaign, so my boss let us go early. I decided to surprise Luke by picking him up from daycare myself instead of letting Mike get him after his shift.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cMommy!\u201d \u201cYou\u2019re early!\u201d, my son said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI sure am, buddy. I thought we could stop for ice cream before heading home.\u201d<\/p>\n
His eyes widened. \u201cCan I get sprinkles?\u201d<\/p>\n
Ad<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can get double sprinkles,\u201d I promised.<\/p>\n
It wasn\u2019t until we were almost home that he dropped the bomb.<\/p>\n
\u201cDaddy won\u2019t be expecting us yet, will he?\u201d I asked\/<\/p>\n
\u201cMommy!\u201d he whispered loudly. \u201cDon\u2019t tell Daddy I told you\u2026 but I have a secret sister.\u201d
\n\u201cWhat?\u201d, I said.<\/p>\n
He nodded seriously. \u201cShe was here yesterday. Daddy said not to say anything.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
