My entire relationship with any member of my biological family, from beginning until more recently, had been carried out through letters. Some of the things that were said in those letters touched me so dramatically. The love that poured through the written pages was amazing. I will share some of the sweet words that were said to me throughout my search. I recently added my step-dad (my bio. mom's husband) to the page because he immediately treated me like family - and I loved it!

My Mother

The majority of letters I have from my mom are handwritten so I have to sort through them to find the things I want to add to this page - but believe you me, there are plenty! I am not going to scan the letters in, only type up the things I want to share.

"Somehow I was always disconnected, but since you found me again that piece of me that was ripped from my heart so many years ago is a part of me again. Not only did I capture forever, but I captured the missing part of me, YOU! I love you. "

"I miss you like crazy! I wish we could share in each others lives more by living closer....I just can't help think of that most days..."

YOU are always in my thoughts....I think you just have to feel it sometimes.... I love you so much and just want to go back and relive last year all over again...
from the moment I bought the ticket...to the moment I boarded the plane... and then just freeze frame on the moment I first saw you...
and the whole week ......
so it would never end...
and I wouldn't be here this Thanksgiving without you."

"Your box is filling up nicely and I have some special surprises for you... though as hard as I tried I could not figure out how to mail myself to you!"

"I love you Nikki, as much, and more, as any mother has ever loved her child. You are my Special Angel! "

My Step-Dad

Bobby, my step-dad, who refers to himself just as "dad" in his letters (which is perfectly OK with me!) has sent a handful of emails, but each one means a LOT to me!
