EJ, I am sorry this has happened to you re: adoption. And I know how easy it is to have that occur. You know where my heart is and I am sending you love not just for mother's day but how about woman's day? Woman's day where we can all claim our power and are beauty and our ever changing, growing skills. We can care and celebrate and make a world of peace. You are a mother still I think. It's something in the heart, it's not a child. It is the art of Mothering which you do so very well.
