When researching adoption stories all over the Internet it was always written by the birth Mothers the adoptive mothers the daughters. Women, Women, Women and more WOMEN. This time I found something very different and very interesting. I found an adoption story written by a Father. I was shocked was this really happening? Wow what a treat for me to read. Not only was it one man writing a story it was a whole website for Adoptive Dads! How crazy how marvelous how interesting. So I started to read. This father is writing so wonderfully he is honest about how he doesn’t know if he wants to give up the pregnancy trail of having a baby and having conversations with his wife about whether the baby has his nose or his nose. Then he goes on to say ” but please don’t allow the prospect of missing out on nine months of pregnancy or how you imagined your family might start keep you from the lifetime of joy and grace that comes from adoption.” This is when I realized again adoption is so special. Having an adopted baby is special. Its something different. Although you treat the baby as your own and it is your own you can always remember the journey, hardships, excitement and craziness that came out of the adoption process. Plus you are a hero you are a hero to not giving birth to someone but taking a chance and giving someone a life. It is truly a beautiful thing. Although the adoption process can be difficult to me it seems it is very worth it. Being adopted is one of the greatest gifts I could have ever hoped for. If I wasn’t adopted I don’t know where I would be now. Being adopted is a lifetime long journey. Some people don’t except you for who you are but inside you are special. You got lucky and got chosen to move in with a great family who will love you unconditionally. Congratulations if you are reading this and you are adopted , you are special. This website really gave me a different prospective of birth parents or adoptive parents, it tells many different stories written by men instead of women. Its the mens point of view and quite frankly it might take you by surprise.
