We were given the assignment of a persuasive speech. Since I am a birthmother, I chose to do mine on open Adoption. This is the class presentation, which needs more practice to be smoother, but I wanted to post what I had.

WIthout any prior knowledge that our daughter had been born we received “Our Call” at 7:35am December 17th. Four and a half hours later we got to meet our precious daughter at the hospital. It was the sweetest day of our lives! She was perfect in every way! And our friends were the best. They scattered that night and bought us a crib and mattress, and all of the other things we needed right away allowing us to stay with our baby. We have truly been blessed! We know that all children are God’s children. It doesn’t matter how they come to you, it’s all a miracle and part of His plan. Adoption is a miracle. We can’t wait to adopt again…and again! These pics are from our day with our baby at the hospital. We love our baby with all of our hearts! She’s the best!

A paternity test determined that his birth mother named the wrong man as his father.Then he used a genealogy DNA test to discover his father’s surname. Finally, a DNA sibling test showed he had met the right family.
