Welcome back to Taylor Talks!
I’ve still been thinking about what I wrote yesterday… I guess it’s just one of those weeks where you reflect on the past. Well, I was thinking about all of the times that my mom discusses my siblings’ backgrounds with them.
I’ve still been thinking about what I wrote yesterday… I guess it’s just one of those weeks where you reflect on the past. Well, I was thinking about all of the times that my mom discusses my siblings’ backgrounds with them.
My mom has always told my siblings, for as long as I can remember, that they were born from her heart, not her stomach. I guess as they all (well, not my littlest sisters yet) have gotten to the age where they understand (in very, very minor child-like detail) how babies are born, they have realized that my mom didn’t give birth to them. My mom has just always had that simple, yet perfect, response for them. And they have always seemed very happy with her answer.
As I have gotten older, I’ve heard this from other parents of adopted children as well. Their children were born from the heart, and that’s all that matters. I think that it’s so beautiful to look at it this way, and I wouldn’t have asked for siblings any other way.
Do you know a family who looks at adoption this way? Share your story in the comments!
I’d greatly appreciate it if you would share this blog with friends and family through your favorite social media sites. If you’re sharing on Twitter, don’t forget to tag me (@TayTayK02) and use the hashtag #TaylorTalks.
Thanks!
