Birth moms

I don't think that it's a secret that I love birth moms. I am in awe of the selfless women who make hard choices and unimaginable sacrifices in order to give their child more than what they themselves can offer. That is a gift that I can't even fully understand. I am in awe of these women, (and often men, we can't forget them:) I'm not sure I am strong enough to make that kind of a choice. But, without angels like them, many of us wouldn't know the joy of being a parent. I will forever be grateful for the love and wisdom of good birthmothers. Our situation isn't the "ideal open adoption" kind of relationship. We have a wonderful relationship with the extended family of our birth parents, but not so great with them. But I have a dream:) I dream that some day we can have a good relationship. I dream that some day I can tell them and show them just how grateful I am to them for making my beautiful babies. I hope that some day we can have an open relationship, and share in each other's lives. It might always be a dream, but it's one I don't think I will ever be able to let go of. I love them, regardless of the situations we have had in the past. They are a part of my life whether they want to be or not, and for that they will always be special to me.
