Posts Tagged ‘Adopted’

Hi, So I am Laura…28 (29 in January)….I have recently posted my 3rd adopted related video to my youtube account….and when I did, again I saw the suggested videos to the right- that have similar tags to mine….I watch a lot of them, sometimes drowning myself in hours of adopted stories/video, good and bad…and a flood of emotions always take over….

I not only want to blog about the specifics of being adopted, but also my life in general-as it is today- without mentioning being adopted, but always knowing I am here, and I have THIS life because my birth mother chose adoption.

Speaking of my birth mother….I found her a little over 2 years ago…a little after my 26th birthday…and met her face to face around Easter 2009….Her name is Theresa…and that is what I call her….she had 2 more kids after me…all of us are 10 years apart a daughter who is now 18 and a son who is 7 (almost 8)- Her son…my biological brother is just a couple months younger them my son who is also 7 (almost 8)…so while I was pregnant with my 1st child- I had no idea- some where out there, my birth mother was also pregnant with her 3rd…

If you haven’t noticed..I keep referring to her as my “birth mother” and will continue to do so, as well as calling her by her name, Theresa….and My parents, whom adopted me- I will keep calling them my parents- and I consider them my “REAL” parents…their names are Barbara and Charley….

Well I’m going to finish this first post, since honestly I could keep going on and on, for days 🙂 and will post back when anything random/important/interesting etc pops up- ok…bye all

till next time 🙂
