I completely agree. My son was not a gift to anyone. I would want an ornament that only contained a picture of my son. I would NOT want anything that referred to adoption. I do not want to celebrate the loss of my son EVER, and I certainly don't want to own an ornament that reminds me of that loss. I know first mothers who have received the "celebrate adoption" ornaments (I think put out by Dave ? - the owner of Wendy's and an adoptee) from their relinquished adult child during reunion. They were devastated to receive such a gift, even though it was given with good intentions.
