Birthmother's Day

Today is a day set-aside in the adoption community as a day to celebrate the women who gave incredible sacrifices...sacrifices that gave a family to a child.  Whether the adoption is open or closed, recent or far in the past...these women are brave and amazing.  They put the needs of their child above their own wants and desires.  Reading their stories is something I think everyone should do...to get a true realization of the LOVE that goes into the decision. 

Here are a few of my favorites:





If you want to take a moment today and say a prayer for all the brave women out there who currently wear, and who will wear the title "Birthmother" that would be lovely.  Say an extra prayer for ours would you?  Whoever she is and wherever she may be.
