FOREVER FAMILY

About the Book

From the moment our son started to speak, my husband and I decided to be honest and upfront with him in knowing from the beginning that he was adopted as a baby. He was just shy of four days old when we brought him home from the hospital. As the years passed he became more curious with questions of just how we became a family. We brought home a few books about adoption and would include them in with his reading ritual each night before bedtime. Even though he showed interest in some stories, none seem to grasp his full attention, he always wanted to hear our story.

So with that said, it is how I became inspired to write this children's book. I also took it upon myself to create the drawings as well to make it even more personable. Most importantly to share our immense gratitude and devotion for having this beautiful boy come into our lives. Thank you my dear son for being everything a mother and father could ever want in a child. You have made our lives more happier then we could have ever imagined.

Love you forever,
Mommy
