I should of probably posted this in the beginning of November, but here I am with just a few days until December! Adoption has changed our lives, I am so fortunate to have four beautiful children. It is truly amazing how people are meant to be together, even if they are half the world away from each other. Adoption is amazing, your heart grows with love, more than you could ever possibly imagine.
Legacy of an Adopted Child
Once there were two women
Who never knew each other
One you do not remember
The other you call mother
Two different lives shaped to make yours one
One became your guiding star
The other became your sun
The first gave you life
And the second taught you to live it
The first gave you a need for love
And the second was there to give it
One gave you a nationality
The other gave you a name
One gave you the seed of talent
The other gave you an aim
One gave you emotions
The other calmed your fears
One saw your first sweet smile
The other dried your tears
One gave you up…It was all that she could do
The other wished for a child
And fate led her straight to you
And now you ask me through your tears
The age-old question through the years
Heredity or environment -Which are you the product of?
Neither my darling - neither
Just two different kinds of love.
