Talking Great News

Hi, I don't know if you guys remember my agony...I had not heard one word from my birth son after mailing him several letters. I finally did what every one tells you not to do,and called the only number I had for him a work phone number. I kept it short,and he called me back after work and said ,"Hi,I have a propostion for you I want to buy a ticket and come out and see you face to face." SOOOOO, My son flies in on the 20th for a weekend here....I am so excited and grateful and scared...His mom is putting a photo album together for me and his wife is sending pictures of their wedding and little baby girl,I really have a open feeling ,trying to not have expectations or any thing. I am just so glad to get to see my son after 21 years,I have not even got a picture of him so it will be really a shock to see him walk off the plane.

WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!
congrats ~~ huge kuddos for you for making that call It's always a scarey one and one that many say DONT DO....but alot of times its the only thing that works. It becomes more personable, you are a real person with a voice. Sometimes its the voice thing that does the trick. Have a great time and just be yourself !

Hi mom of 2,

I second heartbeat. Perhaps you are so busy communicating with your son and explaining everything to your daughter. However, we are here for you if you need us.
