Hi! My mom's first letter to me was so fantastic. I wrote to her first, but what she wrote back blew me away.
My advice for your mom is to write a little bit of the story surrounding his birth and relinquishment--for me, I know that I was very interested in hearing the story of my birth and then why I was relinquished. She wrote about how she felt about it over the years. She also wrote about her likes and dislikes and told me a little bit about my dad, my aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents. She wrote about what she had been up to as well.
My mom poured her heart out--not in an over the top way--but she told me everything that she had always wanted to tell me, and her letter was 11 pages hand written.
The best advice I ever received before writing my first letter was "Write a letter like this is the only time you will ever get to talk to your mom".

To my mom, I love you more than anything on earth. We will never be apart again. 
To my friends here, thanks for being a part of this wonderful journey!
