The Visit

Yesterday we went to Birmingham to visit the birthmother of Asher. We were nervous because we were told that she requested the visit so that she could be reassured of her decision. Well, we thought that meant she was not completely sure that she wanted to give her baby up for adoption. All our fears were eased though, when we learned from talking to her that she wanted reassurance that she had chosen the right family for Asher; it was never up for reconsideration that she would give him up.

Asher's birthmother is a very sweet, kind, and gentle woman. The visit was very good and we left feeling better about the whole thing. We are getting really excited about bringing him home on Monday.
