JANET'S BLOG
Welcome to my world! This is a candid view into the intimate and delicate facets of my orphaned life. These experiences stemming from my abandonment; permanent biological disconnection; drugged institutionalization and adoption may haunt me at times, but they also humbly empower and rejuvenate my soul. Enjoy the read and hug your family!

Mother's Day

With Mother’s Day almost here, I find myself in conflict. I spoil my mother with gifts, give a card and usually see her for hugs. It’s a day I genuinely look forward to show my mother (adoptive) how much I care and appreciate her. On the other hand, I find myself thinking about my biological mother. I wonder if she is thinking of me and what she is doing. I wonder so much this day; I wonder what she looks like; what her voice sounds like; I wonder if she has bad vision like me; I wonder if she has other children. ..then of course I wonder about my siblings. I wonder if I have met her, met any siblings or other family. I find myself staring at families and remarking on the physical similarities. I find myself trying to guess what she is thinking of and perceives of this day. I shared one mother’s day in her womb, and missed out on the last 31. I appreciate the life my mother has given me and I suppose that is just something I will quietly thank her for.
