Question Looking for Astrid C. born June 2004

I just found out one of my children has a bio sibling that was adopted Astrid C. born June 2004. If you or some one you know adopted this precious little one I would love some casual contact so the children can atleast know about each other. Please p.m. me. Thanks! Anna p.s. I am also registered to the list to try and identify bio siblings but would like to widen my search options. Please bump up.

I remember an Astrid on the photolistings when we were waiting for our referral for Kemry that was 2yrs old at the time. She was beautiful with curly hair and big eyes. I know the chances are slim that was the same one since it isn't a completely uncommon name, but reading your post instantly reminded me of her. I'm trying to remember what agency she was with.

I know the Astrid that Dawn is referring to above and she is home with her family, but she was not born in June, she was born in September. I will tell her mom to check out this post and PM you just in case.
