I remember when he came for a visit and he was walking around and looking at everything and while not forming great words, he was trying to make himself understood. It was a bit of a shock. They really do grow up fast and when you're a birthmother, they seem to grow up faster because of how little you see them. I was at my son's third birthday this past July. He runs, he jumps, he figures things out, he speaks in full sentences. Every time I see him I know I've missed something else. I try not to let it get me down, but it is difficult. Usually after seeing him, I prefer to retreat from the world for the rest of the day just so I can process and deal with the emotional mess.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18367023828565958.post-694331842401422712013-09-13T09:10:12.014-07:002013-09-13T09:10:12.014-07:00Those milestones we miss are a huge loss and we ne...Those milestones we miss are a huge loss and we need to grieve over them.

The more Victoria grows the more she looks like me and i question my decision every update but i always remind my self she is with a great family who love her and can give her everything she needs. I always tell my self it was for the best and it was. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14592352630993222574noreply@blogger.com
