I have decided to post a poem I wrote recently about the adoptive mother and myself...take it in stride, it's from my heart.

She & I
Two mothers; she and I
We both know the truth
But each of us can't believe
That the other one loves you

I was your mother first
And she's your mother today
Two women joined at your birth
Two Moms committed to stay

You'll never call me mom
And she'll never have another name
She couldn't give you birth
And I could never give you away

Two women; She and I
It's not a fight, it's not a war
We're bonded by our love for you
That's what we're living for

When you remember why you're here
Think about these tears we've cried
You are special and you are loved
By your Mothers; She and I
