[QUOTE="Ms.PacMan, post: 1096546, member: 4656"] I want to hear Moreluck's story if she'll come back and tell it. My adoption was closed back then of course but the lawyer's secretary forgot to white out my birth mother's name on the adoption papers. They told me her name when I was in high school. I was never that interested but my dad was beside himself with curiosity. He would say things like "Look at your blonde hair. I bet your birth mother has blonde hair" "Did I ever tell you I think I saw her in the waiting room" The comment I liked the most was when my parents would wonder if my birth parents were really smart. They would gush "You're the smartest person in the family. We bet you're birth parents are very smart." Then my mom would remember that my brother and sisters were listening and back track "Well, all you kids are smart, smarter than your dad and I is what we meant". I almost wanted to stick my tongue out at them. My adoption story was my birth story. My siblings all had the - I went in labor in the middle of the night and you were born after 6 hrs. of labor etc....Everyone had their story. I think my siblings enjoyed hearing mine just like I enjoyed hearing theirs. BTW - my mom got pregnant with my brother 6 mos. after adopting me. She felt it was meant to be that way. So my dad would always keep tabs on whether I wanted to find them and was always so excited at the thought of meeting them and finding out why I was who I was, but unfortunately he died when I was 19 before I found them. It wasn't until after I was married and had a baby that I was really curious. [/QUOTE]
