What a beautiful story. Just spent about an hour on your site. My daughter placed her son for adoption when she was 19--06/0. As the birth grandmother, the pain is indescribeable.

The attorney that she used was the attorney that my son was adopted through 18 years ago, so I am certain that my grandson, like your daughter is in a wonderfully loving family.

Thanks you to you and all of your family for such a touching story. God bless all of you.

You are welcome Rose. We spend a lot of time with the birth grandparents (birthdad's mom is coming this weekend) and even the birth great grandparents. I don't think any child can have enough grandparents.

Amy's, the birth mom, blog is really something (Amstel Life). It's funny her parents/mom were very much against us during Amy's decision but we are now very close. Now that we have our own daughter I understand their feelings even more.

Sorry for your pain but as you said I am sure your grandson is with a great family.

God bless you and your daughter.
