Concrete forms

Crack!? Isn't that why I put in the angular rock underneath and embedded steel mesh? At worst, I'm expecting cracks at the junction with the existing concrete patio. I laid the bender board along that face, so there's at least a 1/4" gap along that joint. Any recommendations on filling and covering that joint?

The concrete will always have cracks that result from changes in heat and cooling at different times from shadows or sunlight.

There are differences between cosmetic cracks and structural cracks - the mesh is part of the prevention process for structural cracks like the one's Chuysmom is experiencing.
