Relinquishment vs. Placement

A lot of people don't know that relinquishment and placement can be two different things. Relinquishment means the signing of termination of parental rights by the birth parents. Placement is the actual act of the child being placed into the arms of the adoptive parents. This is often done by the birth mother herself and is almost a ceremony of sorts. For me, relinquishment and the actual placement happened in the same day. What about you? Did you have an actual placement 'ceremony'? What was that like?
