It’s raining today. Appropriate.

Lit

Out

We made these cupcakes yesterday. I shared them here, in their finished state, for those who maybe don’t know our story. It would have helped if I had written a long, eloquent post about the Munchkin, her birth and our open adoption but today’s post space at Chronicles was taken up by the Primal Wound blog tour. Possibly appropriate but definitely heart-wrenching. Suffice it to know that six years ago I gave birth to the most amazing girl this world has ever known.

I’m off to email these shots to her. She’s enjoying Disney World today. I hope to catch some of the boys devouring their cupcakes later tonight and send those off as well. For now, we’re off to BigBrother’s Christmas program. Our lives seem so separate in paragraphs like these but, at the same time, so closely tied together.

Happy Birthday, Munchkin. Forever in my heart.

    Every child should be so loved. I continue to marvel at your strength and tenacity. I know this isn’t easy for you but I’m willing bet that all the hard work and compassion that you, and D (and FireDad too) are investing will pay off in spades as she grows up to be a well adjusted, confident young woman who is clear about who she is and that she is loved in this world. The most important battles are never easy. Hugs to you.
