One day I hope and pray that I will get to meet Nathan's birth mom. I want to be able to look her in the eyes and say thank you. And I want to tell her that I look up to her and consider her to be the bravest woman I have ever met.
I have tried to put myself in her shoes many times since we brought Nathan home. And every time I do I come to the same conclusion. I couldn't do it. I couldn't carry a child inside me for 9 months and give it to someone else to raise. No matter if I was young. Single. Or had little to no money. I just couldn't do it.
But this young woman did! And I am so grateful! Without her self-less act I would not have the title of Mommy. And it's a title I am loving more and more each day!
