We wanted a child To hold and love I didn't conceive you or winess your birth God sent you to us from above The day we met was like no other For on that day, I became your mother The young woman who gave you breath Will always love you Until her death My son, You are doubly blessed You are more loved Than you could have guessed It is a rare child indeed Who can have more mothers To love, than he can need So, my son, if you ever doubt How much you are loved Never forget, You have two mothers And our love for you Will never run out And to the woman who gave you life I say to her 'I'm in your debt' The gift she gave me Was from her heart The gift of love I call, MY SON |

This poem really spoke to my heart for all three of our children have two mothers. I will be forever grateful to the birth mothers for the wonderful gift of life they gave these three children. Being an adoptive parent is a great joy. Best of luck to you. Wanda |

This is such a beautiful gift of love... not just for your son, but for every adoptive parent... and all those who loved enough to let go. *S* Well done! |
