My birth mom was also very young when she put me up for adoption. My gratitude for her is very difficult to capture in words. But please know that it is an amazing blessing to know that my life started with a selfless act of love and sacrifice.

Thank you so much ...I found your blog through Joy. Thank you so much for sharing. I know struggling with infertility I always dreaded mother's day. When we adopted our daughter I looked forward to celebrating my first Mother's day and finally being able to stand in church. That was seven years ago. We now have adopted a second daughter. My life is blessed.<br /><br />Even though I have my little ones I have not forgotten the heartache. I pray for my friends that still struggle and send them something special every Mother's Day.<br /><br />We have an open adoption with our second daughter. I always call or send something to our birth mom. With out her I would not have my daughter.<br /><br />Once again thank you for sharing your story and reminding others to think about the "Forgotten Mothers". I will be thinking and praying for you this weekend.Our Little Blessingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09509963460313229440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5278590855307305066.post-71727010139320668272011-05-05T13:26:42.926-07:002011-05-05T13:26:42.926-07:00Dear Beka.

You are a woman who walks in His strength and dignity and God desires to display it through you this weekend. It will be exactly what the women of your church need to see. *hugs*Joy Dombrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17130119970035042724noreply@blogger.com
