St. Luke's Catholic Church in Barton is a nondescript brown brick building with an underground basement and a severely slanted triangle roof. The orange and yellow leaves dropping from the trees on this brisk late autumn day skittled down its shingles and into piles on the grass, a fading green in the early light of morning.

oh god ...

I don't know if I could handle this.

Me neither. I'm sending big hugs to you, Scully, and to Mulder too.

Well...Shit... <:s

I don't really know what to say. I can't imagine the kind of courage it took you nd Mulder to walk into that church, let alone hold eye contact with your Son! I would have been a mess!
I'm glad you got this opportunity, and I hope that you can at least have Some peace of mind knowing he is with a good family and is well loved. I'm sure it doesn't lessen the pain...but it has to be some sort of comfort...
And at least you got to share the moment with Mulder. I think you both needed this. I can't imagine which would be harder: Seeing your son and knowing he is safe and loved with others, or seeing your son and knowing how much YOU Should get to be the one to keep him safe and loved.
My heart breaks for you guys...but if it helps...I think he recognized you.

The peace of mind has helped both of us.

I couldn't imagine having this moment alone. We were meant to have this moment together.

You know, you could just... I mean, no, I know you can't. But, maybe... ?

[specialtrampds]

We can't. But it's okay.

[kylie_kawaii]

Oh wow.....I'm sending both of you big hugs and happy thoughts.

I know I've already said it once, but I'm hoping that this will give you some closure, and that you can move on with your lives together. Stick together....you both need each other to lean on now.

I know its hard, but at least he is in good hands, and not with adoptive parents who don't care for him. You didn't fail him, I hope you know that.

[specialtrampds]

I agree with everything you've said. I think it has, and will continue, to give us some much-needed closure when it comes to our baby.

Thank you for the happy thoughts.

Devastating.

[a_is4addiction]

Touching.

I want so badly for you to have him back...

[specialtrampds]

I can't express how badly I want him back.

But we will come to terms with this one step at a time.
