I'm popping over from the Creme, beautiful post, it gave me chills. I am going to have to bookmark that one and reread it when I"ve had a particularly challenging day as a mom

This is a great post. I remember the "real mums" meme and bristling. How pat to describe a real mum within the confines of that list. What about the other real mums?

Your open hands metaphor is just perfect.

Came over from the Creme. I couldn't agree with you more. Being a mom is all about love, and openness. That post is beautiful. Thank you for your honesty and for sharing that with us all.

What an eloquent post. I commented on your other post before I read this one, but it fit better here, that we consider all the moms, and dads, to be real ones. The first set of parents are real people. We are real people. It is not a mutually exclusive title.

Thank you so much for participating in our Adoption BlogPost Roundup. I've added you to our blogroll.

Beautiful. As another adoptove mother, posts like this mean so much, not just to me, but also as a way to help others really understand that there's more than one way to be a "real" mother.

You know, I've always thought of a mom who's adopted as the REAL mom. She's the one who takes care of the little person, protects, and loves.

This was a beautiful post.

a beautiful post. the metaphor of open hands is a great one...and a hard one, sometimes.

i think the meme is better for a little messiness...it's more real. :)

Thanks, Jenna. That means a lot. :)
