Im sitting at the kitchen table with tears pouring down my face -- happy tears -- as I read a copy of the emails that my mom and mamochka (birth mom) sent to each other this past holiday weekend. Sometimes I forget the enormity of all of this because we keep moving forward in love as each step and each new reunion happens. To read the thoughtfulness, the happiness, the pure respect and care of each others feelings, my feelings, and everyone else involved...just makes my heart burst! Jamie just walked in from work and said, Why are you crying? I could barely answer because I was so emotional. Its strange how certain things get to me when it comes to this adoption reunion. I think because I am a mama myself, it just blows me away that these two women who have never met -- the one who gave birth to me and the one who raised me -- are just so compassionate and loving toward each other. I dont know why Im surprised because they are both such kind and caring women, but this is an entirely different situation to deal with and its beyond beautiful to witness how they are both handling it. My life is forever changed and I am forever grateful to be surrounded by so much love and so many amazing people, old and new! Next up..Tatiana will be meeting my mamochka, her babushka (grandma), when she is home for Christmas break. Wow.
