Thank you. Sometimes I think that giving my son up for adoption was the "crowning achievement" in my life. At least I was smart enough to know that I wouldn't be able to provide for him the kind of life he could have with two parents. Here are a couple of other facts from his birth: He was one of only THREE babies given up for adoption in my county that month. His parents had been on a waiting list for a child for over three years. And, on a side note... the 14 year old that gave birth across the hall from me the same day took her baby home with her for her mother (the child's grandmother) to raise.
