Today, BoilerBaby 3 celebrated her birthday. One child and her new family celebrate. One mother cries?
I don't know if BB3's birth mother is sad today because she is not able to hold her baby and celebrate another milestone with her, but I wouldn't be surprised if she shed a few tears. I understand that that is often the case with birth mothers.
When I laugh with my children, hug my children, and even fuss at my children, I often am reminded how fortunate I am that I have them. Days like today remind me of the courage it takes to give up one's child for adoption.
So tonight, we celebrate, but I suspect that someone quietly cries.
