How many grandkids and great grandkids do you have?


I'm not biologically related to them . I had 4 stepchildren, but one died of cancer earlier this year.I'm really only close to the youngest one. We have known each other for nearly 40 years. Her biological father disappeared off the scene when she was very little. She has 2 daughters and a grandson and granddaughter. To me they're daughter,granddaughters and gt grandchildren. Depending on the company she's with she say I'm her father or that I'm her stepfather.Some people can get quite stroppy over her calling me her father. We love each other as a father and daughter would. They are family and I love them all very much. I'm in contact via Facebook with the 3 children of the stepson who died of cancer. I had quite a lot to do with them when they were younger. The youngest stepson is a ne'er do well. The eldest stepdaughter and I are polite to each other but we aren't close. Her children have never been close to me. I've lost count of how many step great grandchildren there are.
