This is how I personally feel an open adoption can be handled. This has worked for me and many other adoptive couples. http://myangelsfromgod.blogspot.com/2012/02/handling-open-adoption.htmlKatelyn Krum Shawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13242189913374936401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8179547258833191681.post-53667663197179159922012-04-01T16:57:28.637-07:002012-04-01T16:57:28.637-07:00I wish I could have gone to the retreat but it was...I wish I could have gone to the retreat but it was a busy weekend for me. I am a birth mother of 2 and I love sharing my story of open adoption. If it wasn't for my open adoption with my first the family would not have known I was pregnant again and looking to place. So now they have both my birth children. We have such a great relationship I feel like part of the family. Good luck and god speed in finding your baby. It's amazing how God works and brings that baby to the right family!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04837626224515712756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8179547258833191681.post-3611090639405457052012-04-01T16:24:36.771-07:002012-04-01T16:24:36.771-07:00I am so glad you came!

We agree that it is about FINDING and not WAITING. We found our birthmom through our pass along cards. We are now the proud parents of a wonderful 8 month old baby boy. Feel free to check out our blogs: highwaytoadoption.blogspot.com or ourjcrew.blogspot.com. And we are always willing to provide any help.<br /><br />Good luck in your FINDING!<br /><br />James & HeatherJameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10204238418846127812noreply@blogger.com
