Not Just A Birth Mom: Damn Straight
http://notjustabirthmom.blogspot.com/2011/03/damn-straight.html
Not Just A Birth Mom. The ups and downs of life after placement. Thursday, March 24, 2011. This is something I did not expect. While I am a true Florida Gator fan, I am also a realist. In my bracket, I had BYU beating Florida and passing on all the way to my final 8. I do not care for BYU, but like I said, I am a realist. Needless to say, I am ECSTATIC. Oh it is great to be a Florida. Not Just A Birth Mom. March 24, 2011 at 11:38 PM. Lol You make me smile! March 29, 2011 at 9:26 AM. You are so sweet!

Where's Baby Lily, Mommy? ONE FAMILY'S MISGUIDED TOUR THROUGH DOMESTIC ADOPTION. 47: "WAS THE COOKIE TIN TOO FULL OR TOO EMPTY? IT'S AN OFFENSIVE QUESTION IN THE CASE OF ADOPTION, BUT THE TRUTH IS, IT DID COME UP. I had written out a small gift card for each boy. The cards read something like the following (I can't recall the exact wording):. Please hug me if you are ever feeling sad! I had stood in the kitchen, carefully placing the cookies into a tin, while my mom peered over my shoulder. My mom remove...

"Where's Baby Lily, Mommy?": # 86: BIRTHMOTHER'S BIRTHDAY
http://abortedadoption.blogspot.com/2013/10/86-birthmothers-birthday.html
Where's Baby Lily, Mommy? ONE FAMILY'S MISGUIDED TOUR THROUGH DOMESTIC ADOPTION. After a busy day with the kids and Tom's parents, I was eager to go to sleep, but I sat down to write an email to Kendra instead. It was her birthday, and I'd been thinking about her all day. This is the email I sent Kendra at exactly 9:51 pm:. I'm pretty sure the paperwork said it is your 25th birthday today! Happy Birthday from all of us! It must be lovely there during the holidays. Everyone is simply thrilled. My in l...

Where's Baby Lily, Mommy? ONE FAMILY'S MISGUIDED TOUR THROUGH DOMESTIC ADOPTION. 59: HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY! Baby Lily's First Birthday. I hope that wherever you are in this world you are loved, happy, and healthy. Is your birthday cake made of ice cream or did you get the fancier fondant kind, complete with your own little smash cake? What presents did you receive? Did you have a party with a super girly party theme? But that is unlikely. And even if possible (it is of course possible. I, on the other han...

Not Just A Birth Mom: February 2011
http://notjustabirthmom.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Not Just A Birth Mom. The ups and downs of life after placement. Sunday, February 27, 2011. Just to clear things up. It seems as though there has been a bit confusion on where I stand as far as adoption is concerned. Let me just say that I am totally Pro-Adoption. Adoption can be a beautiful, wonderful thing, like it is in my life. Painful, but beautiful. When done right, adoption can be amazing. But that's just it- when done right. Not Just A Birth Mom. Links to this post. Saturday, February 26, 2011.

Not Just A Birth Mom. The ups and downs of life after placement. Wednesday, May 11, 2011. The Most Perfect Mothers Day. I told JGG about my plans, and he graciously offered to let me use his Cannon Rebel as my digital camera’s shutter speed is no longer fast enough to keep up with Robbie (I’m happy to report I had absolutely zero blurry pictures from Friday! I started cracking up laughing and exclaiming, “Oh my gosh, oh my gosh! You guys had this planned all along! They worked together to make me breakfa...

Where's Baby Lily, Mommy? ONE FAMILY'S MISGUIDED TOUR THROUGH DOMESTIC ADOPTION. 57: I DIDN'T LOVE HER LIKE MY OWN. Oh my God," Tracey muttered, "she's the most beautiful baby ever! Jim and Tracey were staring at Lily, who slept peacefully in the bassinet. She's amazing," Jim said. "This is all so amazing. Congratulations, guys.". Well, she's not ours for sure yet," I quickly reminded them. "The birth father has another three weeks to contest the adoption.". What you guys went through was terribly disapp...

I have to agree with the comment above, with out the help I have around me I dont know how I would do this. March 23, 2011 at 1:11 PM. March 23,...
