I love it. I gave them to her! Isn't it amazing how such a small change in wording can affect us.
I hadnt realized what I had put out of my mind until I read the social workers report regarding that last journey to sign the papers. We didnt have to stand in front of any judge over here in NZ. How daunting.
I was talking to my mum about it the other day...she remembers and told me how she wanted to rush back to the hospital and get her when she watched me cross the road. "I wished you had mum" I said.
"it was your decision" she said back.
WHAT!!!!!!!!!!My decision sure, after being told how I wouldnt be allowed to bring the baby home, let alone the slamming of words like...no one will ever want to marry you, illegitimate child, solo mum ( I always laugh at the respect solo dad gets). Selective memory I would say mum!!!!!
After 29yrs she still doesnt get it.
