Adoption: the gift that keeps on giving



So out of the blue today, my youngest son M, says to me:

"So K (my son whom I placed for adoption) use to be your son too?

{Instant ache of pain to the heart}

"Like if he lived here, with us, he'd be my BIG brother?"

I looked at him and said, "Sweetie, he'll ALWAYS be your brother no matter where he is."
  M gets a HUGE smile on his face and replies:

"Cool, I have a big brother out there.  He's kind of my guardian angel huh mom?"

             {A tear in my eye and NOW my heart is swelling with pride}
