Holy cow!
I can't believe how open you guys are, it's fantastic! I wish my son's AMom was that open. She keeps a lot of things to herself and tends not to trust me. It's tricky sometimes.
Just be prepared, things may get rocky again. I grieved in many way at many different times in my life. And don't get upset if she needs some space at different times in her life, it's totally normal. It might all become a bit too much, especially when she moves on to have other children of her own. I didn't talk to my son's Afamily for 1.5 years once, when I was pregnant with my daughter and a little while after. I just couldn't. I felt guilty that i gave him away and was going to keep her. I know it was difficult for them and I can't make that mistake again for my DS's sake, but I needed that time to think things through.

I'm so happy for you and Bmom. Sounds like you have started a wonderful thing that your DS will be very grateful for!
