When things just click -- it can be validating

This is beautiful. I think that sometimes adoption brings together more than just the child and the adoptive parents. It brings together families. I admire many of the qualities that my birth daughter's parents have. Their strong, loving marriage is a great example, and I hope to have what they have some day. That example got me out of a few unhealthy relationships- I couldn't stay in them if I wanted a marriage like D and K. They have taught me so much, and they tell me I have taught them as well. Even though life has it's ups and downs, I know that this adoption was truly meant to be.
