We spent an hour and a half this morning with the family of our birthmother. Her husband and daughter joined her, and it didn't take long for all of us to relax and begin chatting. Several important decisions came out of our time together, the biggest being our mutual decision to have an open adoption. Our son will have three "half" sisters, and we all want there to be some sort of relationship, even if it is a distant one.
I instantly fell in love with this young woman's heart and look forward to a lifetime of knowing her. Our relationship may kick into high gear SOON; she had her daughter at seven months' gestation!
