[tps_header]Stef and Lena[/tps_header]
This list couldn’t end without talking about the matriarchs of the family, moms Stef and Lena. What I love so much about seeing their story over the last three seasons, is to see how honestly their relationship is portrayed and the obstacles they face, day-to-day, as a family. Seeing that this couple loves each other deeply but that they have problems, just like anybody else, is an important thing for other families to realize. From Stef’s struggles with her own internalized homophobia, to Lena’s complicated relationship with Monte, to their trouble with intimacy, cancer and loss, Stef and Lena have endured it all. At the end of the day, they love each and their children and are proud to share that.
The Fosters season four premieres tonight at 8/7 c on Freeform!
