Just reaching out for some support as my son's birthday (13th) and date of relinquishment (14th) approach.
So far I feel okay, but you never know when grief will hit you.
Thanks you guys. :)

As my grandpa used to say "just don't call me late for supper".
Anyways I just got off the phone with T. We talked a bit about his day and what he got and what they were up to tonight. At the end of the conversation I said "I love you" and all he said was "bye". :( I know I shouldn't read too much into it because he's an 8 year old boy, but that hurt.
Aw Tara, I'm sorry. I know that must be hard. I know it's easy for me to just say "It's what 8 year old boys do" (and it is!) but that doesn't change it. :grouphug: We're here for you!

Thanks T. It hurts even though I understand you know? Anyways I was chatting with his adad when I first called and adad says jokingly "I don't know why you'd be calling today" and I could hear T in the background say "cause it's my birthday!". So that was pretty cute.
Tara, here's a big hug coming your way! :grouphug:
I know it hurt when T didn't reciprocate with "I love you, too." But most 8 y/o boys I've known, including my own brothers at that age, just don't like saying "mushy" things. But I know it still hurts...I've been there myself with my own son.
I'm so glad you were able to talk with T on his birthday. And I know it meant a lot to him, too. Good thoughts coming your way...
