This is a toughie...

My husband and I thought long and hard before we chose to find an open adoption... our daughter's firstmom and I have actually discussed the concern about problems in the relationship. What would we do if someday it was too hard on OUR daughter to continue a relationship. --- by the word OUR, I mean that she is both the firstmother's daughter and my husband's and my adaughter. It would be at that time that I would continue a relationship and an open line of communication with our daughter's firstmom until once again they are ready to work on a relationship.

I would truly be devistated if there was a decision to close our adoption... I would rather just consider a time of separation with the door proped open...

I hope that this comes across in the loving way that I feel about our extended family...
