Letter
to a Birthmother from Adoptive Parents
Dear Joan:
I learned yesterday that you are the Birthmother of our adopted
daughter, Kathy. My wife, Eileen, and I are overjoyed to learn
that you are willing to tell Kathy about her genetic background
and her blood relatives. This has been a continuing mystery to
Kathy. It is wonderful that you have been so open to telling her
about yourself and in getting to know a little bit about Kathy.
Kathy
was a beautiful gift that you gave to my wife and me! We will
be forever grateful to you for your courage and generosity. Kathy
has enriched our lives so much more than anything we have done
for her. She is a blessing. Since she was very small we have told
Kathy that you, Joan, must be a very special person, and we often
have asked her to pray for you and your happiness…
We want to remain in touch.
Again,
God bless you for letting us raise such a precious child. You
will always be in our hearts.
With the
warmest feelings,
John and
Eileen
