Dear KP --

What a beautiful sentiment to your daughter. Reading it brought tears to my eyes. Giving up a child for adoption is the ultimate demonstration of unselfish love.

I disagree that you were not there for your daughter ... while not being there in a physical sense .... you were present, in her life, spiritually. Many times, we fail, to acknowledge the power of the spiritual realm. Your thoughts and prayers, for your little girl were felt by her ... they gave her strength and made a difference in her life.

As a little girl my Grandmother didn't live close by. I saw her only occasionally. On one of those visits she pulled me aside saying .... "Colorado do you know how special you are to me .... Do you know that each day I pray for you and ask God to help, protect and guide you. Her words made me feel very special and loved. More times than I could count I felt Grandma's loving prayers throughout my school day .... sometimes it was when the answer would come, while taking a test ... sometimes when the school bully left me alone ... at other times when my misplaced homework magically showed up. While not there physically I felt my Grandmother's presence (through her thoughts and prayers) each and every day.

I pray that your daughter, at some point in time, will want to know you and desire a relationship with you. When that time comes I'm sure she will have countless stories to share in regard to the thoughts and prayers sent up, on her behalf, by you.

Peace.

After 20 years, and you still remember & long for her....It clearly proves that you are a good loving mother. Wishing you the very best.

That was absolutely beautiful...She will love it one day....
