CM-
First of all, I am thrilled for your contact with Courtney! She sounds like a really "together" young woman, not blocking your access but asking for time (for alot of reasons, I'm sure). I know that euphoria of first contact... you don't quite believe it's real because you've dreamed of it for so long.
Secondly, congratulations on the way you responded to the amom... you definitely took the high road with her, thinking of the long term with your daughter.
Finally, I've held back responding to the last thread you posted because there were such strong opinions posted there--it seemed to take on a life of its own, didn't it? As another bmom, it's really hard to look at right or wrong when we've waited so long. FWIW, I feel you got the absolute best result from this. If the amom continues to contact you, just answer as briefly as possible that you're in contact with C now and would like to wait to communicate directly with her.
All the best!
Soprano
