Hi. I'm fairly new to this forum but wanted to say, yes, as an adoptee, I always searched more around my birthday. I think curiosity about where I came from and what my birthparents looked like and things that many adoptees feel surfaced more around that time. My adoptive mom always told my brothers and I to say a little prayer for our birthmoms on that day because if she thought of us no other day of the year, certainly she was on that day. I'm also very close to making contact with my birthmom. There have been new developments in the last week and we are working with a neutral third party to set up possible communication. So many emotions I didn't expect are surfacing. Her husband knows about me but apparently her children do not, so it's a very difficult time for her as well and I respect her decision to move things at a snails pace. We'll see how it goes.
Take care and hang in there!
Teri
