Brett: It’s crazy, you know. A month ago I couldn’t care less about meeting my birth mom. It’s wasn’t even on my radar, and now my whole life is about to change.
Casey: It doesn’t have to. Nothing has to change unless you want it to.
Brett: Yeah, I guess that’s true, but I won’t control the idea of who she is anymore. When I was little, like 6 years old, I had a bad case of ‘Disney Princess fever,’ and I was convinced my real parents were British royals.
Casey: Really?
Brett: I knew it wasn’t true. It was just fun to pretend. As I got older, I guess I never looked for my birth parents because a) I love my parents dearly and b) I figured the reality could never live up to the fantasy.
