Sweet <3 I really admire you! You are truly the best possible mother for your three beautiful children. It`s really important for a child to know her roots. May God bless your family, also the one in Uganda.

On Sunday, I had some alone time with Leah and we had the opportunity to discuss the search for her birth mom. It went something like this:
Leah, you know you didn't grow in Mama's belly, right? You were adopted like your brothers.
Leah: No, I didn't know that.
{Insert sigh}
Okay, baby. We've talked about this many times. You have a birth mommy but we don't know where she is. I have asked our friend in Uganda to help me find her. Do you remember her?
Leah: Maybe a little bit. I think of her a little bit.
Great! So, our friend is going to work with some friends and see if we can find the mommy whose belly you grew inside of when you were a baby.
Leah: {without a moment's hesitation and full of excitement} Do I get to MEET her? {Huge smile}
We'll see. First, we have to see if we can find her. Then we have more questions to figure out. But yes, honey. I want you to meet your birth mom if we can. I'm glad you're so excited about it! I want to meet her too and hug her. No matter what, you get to stay with Momma forever.
