forbibben*emotions
I went out and bought a book today, not the one I wanted but nevertheless a book on adoption reunions and beyond. This is a "forbidden place" for me because I don't want to 'feel' or allow myself to be emotional but I have this need to know that I am normal and that what I am going thru or putting off going thru is all ok! I have yet to deal with
( Read more... )
I'm glad you did because I am interested in what your story is too! I actually just read a few of your entries and I think it is WONDERFUL that you met your daughter!! I hope things contimue to go well for both of you. I know EXACTLY what she is feeling, it's an emotional roller coaster that I am still on even after two years! It was a life changing experience for me and I think I went thru every emotion possible and still do! Be patient with her thru it all, you seem wonderful and she should be honored that YOU are her mom!
I have met my brothers and their wives and children and since my parents married all of their brothers and sisters are blood too! So... I have met quite a few of my relatives! It really has been a great experience so far, with the odd "issue" but no family is without their "issues"!
My adopted parents were ok with it, my dad more so than my mom! That is because my adopted mother and I never really got a long so she felt a little less in control of MY life! Long story!
Also the books I have read have REALLY helped me to understand what everyone goes thru and especially reading about other adoptees and feeling like I am not alone in what I feel! I have ordered two other books that haven't come yet, but I am very interested in reading them!
Anyway thanks for your note and I hope everything continues to be positive for you! :)
Keep in touch...I will add you back too!
Thanx again!
