I Never Imagined

I never imagined that my life would be like this. If someone would have told me 10 years ago, or even 5 that I would actually want to talk to people and share the story, I would've said they were crazy. I was one of the shyest people on earth. I was scared to death to talk to people.
But that was before:

Before I called a woman 600 miles away and told her I was married to the son she gave up 43 years earlier:

Before I heard J's brothers voice before he did:

Before J went from being an only child to 1 of 7:

Before we flew 600 miles away to finally meet the parents that gave him life and meet the siblings that never knew about him:

So this is now.....would I share his story? Yeah, fill an auditorium.......I'm ready. It has been one of the most life changing experiences ever. It's had it's ups and downs, but it has been well worth what we went through to get here.

About Me and Why I'm Here

I am the wife of an adoptee that has been in reunion for almost 3 years. We searched for his family for 7 years before finally finding them. The reunion has been great at times, not good and times, but definately no regrets. Through the search and the reunion, I have found that there are all kinds of support out there. But I really haven't been able to find many places for spouses of adoptees. I wanted to put up this blog to give spouses a place to go and share their feelings too.

Adoption touches so many people in so many different ways, and this is just my little corner of the world where I will have a place to share my feelings, and maybe find a few people that can relate to what I feel.

I'm also here to offer any support I can to spouses of adoptees going into reunion, because trust me, it will affect your life too!

So feel free to comment, let me know where you fit in the picture?
