The day my parent's dreams came true.  I wonder when mine will come true?

    Oh, I didn't know u were adopted! That's awesome.

    (I also didn't know you were 3-4 yrs younger than me!)

    I just found out that my dh would rather we adopt a sibling for my dd if we're not able to get ku again. (We just had this discussion last weekend ---the "what if" conversation).......

    Did u ever know your birth parents? (You can tell me to butt out if you don't want to share this)

    I know my birthmom (and half-siblings) but not my birthdad. I've tried writing to him a few times--my birthmom gave me his address--but with no reply. 

    Here is me with my birthmom and brothers and sister in 2003:

    The backstory: she was 15 when she got pg with me and 16 when I was born.  Her BF left (he was even younger than her) and her parents were not supportive at all. She tried the teen-mom thing for 5 months and decided it would be best for me if she gave me up (and I'm SO thankful for the life she gave me by choosing adoption!).  She got married on my 2nd birthday (not to my dad) and then had 3 more kids in 3 years.  Why oh why coulndn't I have inherited her fertility????  Sheesh.

    You are SOOOO cute!  How did they get that bow stuck to your adorable, bald little head!  What a fantastic picture, and you already grabbing at your mom.  So precious.

    Wow. That's awesome. I really admire women/girls that choose adoption. I think it would be the most heart-wrenching decision to ever have to make. I couldn't imagine having to realize that my child would be better off. I'm soooo glad you had a good experience and appreciate that she made that choice for you.

    You'll have the children you're supposed to. I know you will. God will bless you w/what u're supposed to have. ((((hugs)))) Thanks for sharing that w/us!

    What a neat pic. My DH is adopted. His family celebrates his adoption day every year, which also happens to be my Bday. I can only imagine how happy your parents were at that moment, thanks for sharing.

    What a great pic and a great story.  It is seriously making me cry this morning!  I'm so glad things turned out well for you.

    You'll get your baby soon.

    This is such a sweet picture and story!  My dad is adopted, and one of my close friends at work just adopted her first baby last week!  She is ecstatic.

    Dec 5th is a great day, too...just happens that I share my birthday with your adoption day :)
