Thanksgivingmom,
Like the others, I thank you for sharing your story so willingly. I hope we indeed are part of your safe haven.

I was so lucky in that, although my mother didn't agree with my decision to place, she supported me in my decision and helped me. (My dad felt it was the right decision although he would have supported my decision to parent also.) Admitting to my parents that I was pregnant is probably the hardest thing I have ever done, because I knew it hurt and disappointed them both. (And admitting it was the right word, because mom figured out in about July, that I hadn't had a period since I'd been home from college and tackled me about it.) Dad and I have spent a good bit of time talking about it since my reunion. That's been a helpful thing for me, I think.

It's never easy, is it?
