My name is Jamie Grumet and I am a wife and mother. We wanted to start a blog to connect with other families who were also in the adoption process.
Two Families
I have two families on this earth,
One by adoption, and one by birth.
My first family was very kind
But then one day they couldn’t find
The things they needed to help me grow.
They made a decision out of love, I know.
They said “Good-bye”, and then they cried.
But my second family did not hide.
They knew that I should come inside
Their loving home and family.
Now I’m here, and it’s best for me.
And I still have two families on this earth,
One by adoption, and one by birth.~ Amanda Dees age 9
Written after meeting her birth mother.
I hope this blog will serve the purpose of connecting us with other families. We are part of this global community and we should not be afraid to ask questions, give encouragement, or just be present for one another.
