Loosy, thanks for your reply hon, I am so glad things are going well for you. I am equally glad you and your sons mom get along so well, what a gift for both of you and your son.

Christi,
I did prepare them the best I could, my mom and birthmom are totally opposite but the meeting went well I think. My parents supported my search but when it came to meeting I think fear took over. My mom brought pictures of me growing up and the two of them talked, I kept myself busy with my daughters birthday party so that I didn't add tension to the mix, I thought they might be more comfortable talking alone. My mom asked me later that night what Jenny thought of her and I told her Jenny liked her and was glad I went to a good home. My dad said hi but that was it, he hung mostly with the guys after that but for him talking about not coming to his granddaughters birthday party because Jenny was here I am just glad he came. When my mom called earlier that morning and said that her and dad weren't coming early to meet Jenny as we planned and dad wasn't sure if he was coming I was mad, I called her back and told her that if we are not honest with each other about how we feel then someone is going to get hurt, if they felt this way they needed to have said something earlier and that I would not have my daughter hurt on her birthday. Mom said they were coming and all was well. My dad is just having a hard time sharing his granddaughter and daughter so I applaud the fact he put his fear and feelings aside and came to met her anyways, and more so that he was here for his granddaughter on her birthday. I will not have my child hurt over all of this. No plans for my mom and birthmom to get together since but we are all looking for some down time right now too. Between the whole search and reunion, the holidays and my daughters birthday and the face to faces we all need a little break. God bless! Aura
