I am so very happy you and Vicki found one another!!! I've been looking at your pictures on the video camera and you are beautiful. I don't think you have any reason to be confused either. Your mother loves you and your parents love you, too. That's the best of all worlds.
Love Always,
Betty
ps Your mom is sitting here and says hi, she loves you and oh yes, HAPPY BIRTHDAY FROM ME, TOO!!!

I am black and white, obviously by the name.. but I was raised by a white family, but I went to a school that had more blacks than white because thats where my mom taught. So I didn't get it when people asked me what I was.. I was me. And I still am.. I think being mixed makes us better.. *shh* oreomeg@yahoo.com
