As we get closer to our referral, Chelsee is beginning to take more of a physical shape in my mind. I can't picture her or anything but she is more than a name to me now. It's as if she is taking on a doll shape or something similar to that. Hard to describe.
But more and more, I find myself thinking of her birth mother. How agonizing her decision had to be, how devastated she must still be and always will be. How unimaginable her pain! I will forever be grateful to her but I feel pain for her just the same. Here is a neat article on how one adoptive mom and her daughter handled the birth mother issue: Birth Mother
I hope to be as wise and calm as this mom was when it is my turn to celebrate Chelsee's birth mom!
