She looks almost identical to her mother when her mother was in high school. It's incredible that people are signing up for these registries and that they're finding each other again. Adoption is hard, it really breaks your heart.

Adoption is beautiful. I'm greatful for the relationship I am able to have with my son and his family, family to me as well. He is now 21, he has always known he was adopted and was proud of it. Twice loved and never forgotten. My heart aches for all adoptees and birth families who live with the pain of separation and the unknown. Love is around you always for you are loved as well by a tree of family members unknown to you yet. Bless all going through their own search and may you find those puzzle peices to your heart.

@@TheYasmineFlowerI totally agree with you. I am financially stable and love my grandson so much, but social workers gave them away to a foreign couple that uses adopted children as a form of income. They said that because my daughter lost her parental rights I lost my grandmother rights as well. My whole family is hurting and this baby is living in poverty. I just hope he finds us some day.

M Mary I'm sorry to hear that. My father was adopted, he got to meet his bio mom but his bio dad was a womanizer who never met half the kids he made. I could never understand when a bio parent refuses to meet their child, to me it's extremely selfish on their part. Have you at least been able to meet your bio dad or luck in tracking him down? What I suggest to you is go onto ancestry.com and do their DNA test. Once you get your results back it will show you other close relatives of yours who have also partaken in it is well. Even though I wasn't adopted myself, both my father and maternal grandmother were adopted so trust me when I say I empathize with you. Best of luck to you and remember in the end it's not your genetics that define you, but your actions.
