Nat, I was "obsessing" one day about DD's wedding. I wanted to be the ONE dressing her in her gown, etc. (I mean it's insane....she's 2!!!).

Since DH is adopted, I know sort of first hand the "guilt" that many adoptees (at least of the closed generation) feel when they want to learn more about their birth families. DH is such a mama's boy and soooo "loyal" to his family and I worry that it is preventing him from reaching out to his birth mom (which could be a huge can of worms, but who knows?). I think adoptees sometimes feel like that a parents "deserve" to be the only ones in their lives, and I don't want DD to struggle with this. (by the time, she's 3, I'll have it all figured out! haha).
