KittyMay,
Absolutely there are great reunion stories. And hopefully yours will be one of them. Reunion was a turning point in my life - giving me and bparents a peace we didn't even realize that we needed. There are marvelous stories out there - along with the ones that break your heart - but what that tells you is that each reunion is different.

There are a lot of books on reunion - I liked the reunion handbook. This will give you some ideas about reunion and maybe help you feel more prepared. Expect to feel nervous, scared, excited, and super sensitive until you actually meet. They don't call this an emotional rollercoaster for nothing. Try to keep expectations low and just enjoy what happens. Also, it helped me to have plans in place during the f2f and some time available by myself to process what was happening.

Congratulations on reunion and good luck on your f2f.
F2F is so exciting - and it is just the beginning of a relationship.

Jill
