Once adopted the stepmother is no longer a stepmother, but the mother. If you're the biological mother and the adoption was properly conducted you would have no rights. The divorce would not restore your rights or effect you at all. If the girls' parents want you involved it would be their choice. Once 18 the girls could chose.
