Little update
I just wanted to post a little update to this post. I sent the amom a letter. I think it was a very nice letter. I told her I wanted to extend the olive branch to her. I told her I could not apologize for contesting the adoption, and I told her why I did it. I told her I apologized for not thinking of her feelings when I contested it. I told her I was optimistic I would hear from her. OK - that was December 1. She received the letter December 2. I sent it certified, and she is the one who signed for it. Now - I am counting the weeks she has had it in her posession. I did not expect a letter before Christmas. I thought, this is their last Christmas as they have known it before he goes to college - she wants to keep it the same and not think about me. Ok - now we are a month past Christmas.
I am sure she was SHOCKED that I sent her the letter. They have always had an unlisted phone number (since the adoption); so I think she thinks I have none of this information. I have had their addresses and phone numbers for years. Heck, I could have called her, but I sent the letter instead. She could deal with it and digest it in her own time. Could she have the decency to respond - NOPE. Nothing - nada.
If I ever get mad and say anything to my mom, like - you know she could have had the decency to respond - or - these are these great people you thought were soooooo worthy of raising my child, my mom is always like - I know, I know, I've heard this before. I am really at my wit's end with all mothers involved.
I don't know what to do now. Anyone have any ideas?????
