K - I thought this looked familiar! I've been wanting to read the responses on the other one, but haven't yet.

The one thing that you have not told them that you absolutely could not go on for another day without telling them... This is hard. Maybe that we think about her every day.

I did just write out her Mother's Day card we're sending and wrote in there that if it weren't for her, I wouldn't be a mom, and I cannot get into words how that makes me feel. I wish I could describe my happiness and gratitude without sounding condescending, but I keep imagining that for every difficulty I have doing that, she would have the same trouble describing her grief and other feelings after deciding not to parent her child.....

In addition what is the one thing that you would tell your child??

Hmmmm Don't know yet, since he's only a few months old and I already talk about her and tell him that his birthmom loves him.


What one thing do you wish your childs birth/first parents would tell you??

What you want him to know (about why you chose us, why you placed him, something about yourselves - whatever you want us to be sure to share with him!)
