Legacy of an Adopted Child
Once there were two women
Who never knew each other.
One you do not remember,
The other you call mother.
Two different lives
Shaped to make yours one.
One became your guiding star,
The other became your sun.
The first gave you life,
And the second taught you to live in it.
The first gave you a need for love,
And the second was there to give it.
One gave you a nationality,
The other gave you a name.
One gave you the seed of talent,
The other gave you an aim.
One gave you emotions,
The other calmed you fears.
One gave you up-
It was all that she could do.
The other prayed for a child
And God led her straight to you.
And now you ask me through your tears
The age-old question though the years:
Heredity or environment-
Which are you the product of?
Neither my darling - neither,
Just two different kinds of love.

Words CANNOT express how very grateful I am for the blessing of adoption. I am so grateful for my Birth Mother's endless love, courage, strength and faith! Because of her selflessness I have been blessed with such a beautiful life.
THANK YOU ANGELA!
I LOVE YOU WITH ALL OF MY HEART!
