It's the Same Feeling...

Yes, It's the Same Feeling   For anyone who wonders, or isn't sure...yes, it's the same feeling...   From someone who has one son by birth and now one son by adoption, I can honestly say it is the exact same feeling...I think everyone (including me) may have wondered if it really is the same...and now I know, 100%, yes, it's the same feeling.   For those who have given birth, you know the feelings you experience at the moment you deliver and the moment your child is handed to you and you hold him/her for the first time.  I can now say, it is exactly the same feeling when your meet your child for the first time.  Whether carrying your child in your body for 9 months, or carrying your child in your heart for 5 months, when you meet your child for the first time, the feelings are the same...   It's the feelings all mothers have for their children - love, anticipation, hope, wonder, a sense of a new beginning...   We are so blessed to have both Aaron and Donovan as our sons.
