Aishlin has written really sound advise. Keeping communication open is of utmost importance in this situation. Kathryn is still a minor and is very young. I like her suggestion of getting to know the first mom. A sixteen year old is just a child and not necessarily mature enough to handle the emotional ups and downs of a reunion. The teen years are difficult and awkward enough standing alone. I definitely would not make this a competition as that may put strains on the relationship that you now have with your daughter.
My prayers are with you,
Barbara
