hockeygurl; While you may think of your birthmother as a gift-giver, I am not one. My daughter wasn’t something to be given and received. I understand that others prefer this language but I do not. I think it diminishes my daughter and the continued responsibility I have to her through open adoption.

Dear Jenna-
As an adoptee and mother of two, I want
you to know there is not a day that goes bny I don’t think about my birthmother. You are a unselfish gift-giver.

momof5wi- If you check the date of the post you will see that it was posted YESTERDAY 5/10/08 which indeed was Birth Mothers Day.

It is NOT Birth mothers day today..it is simply MOTHERS day..for mommies of adopted babies, or birth kids. So step moms, adopted moms alike go and celebrate this fabulous day.

Thanks Jenna! I’m a new birthmom…my daughter is seven months, and I really don’t know what to expect this weekend. Your posts this week have been really helpful.
