A man committed to being the best stepdad ever received news that changed how he saw his future.
At 37 years old, Lorenz Stefan from Albuquerque, New Mexico, was a dedicated stepdad. He treated his wife Blanca’s two children as if they were his own. He took them to games, showed up for them, and proudly introduced them to everyone as his daughters. He was determined to earn the title of “father.”
Given their work-life balance and age, Lorenz had come to terms with the possibility that he might never have biological children of his own.
That is, until one day, when Blanca began feeling unusually emotional and nauseous. She decided to take a pregnancy test, and the results stunned her. “Everything slowed down,” Blanca told T&T Creative.

Life as they knew it was about to change. To share the incredible news with Lorenz, Blanca put together a surprise baby box for him to open at dinner.
What began as confusion slowly turned into shock, and then into overwhelming joy. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing. The family he already thought was perfect is now complete.
