This is so beautiful. I was adopted at 2. I found my birth mother on Facebook earlier this year but unfortunately she blames me for my own adoption and refuses to speak to me. It was very crushing after watching this video so many times before (and since). I've thought about her so much, even still. I wish we could've had some sort of relationship.
Absolutly Beautiful,, I hope one day to get past the Emails and the txt, and to be able to meet her in person and talk to her in person, its been 2.5 years, she will be 30 In Oct, and Has 2 beautiful children, My GrandChildren, One day we will meet again.

What about the adoptive parents who put in all the love and work to make that lovely girl the fabulous human being that she obviously is? Idendity is very important to adopted children and I understand that, but it's the adoptees who get hurt when the birth parents suddenly show up and take the glory. I hope this had a good outcome for their sake. X
I just shared your reunion story on my Facebook page called: ReViHo7. I found my biological family from Peru en 2008, so if you want, take a look :) Just put my name on YouTube : Renaud Vinet-Houle and select the english version. Thank you :)
I just recently met my birthmother and I have to say that I wish it was as beautiful as this. There were no cameras or even tears. I'm glad I did it, but it didn't feel special like I had hoped it would. Although I still have contact with her, I just can't seem to figure out how I feel about everything past and present.
Very beautiful video. My daughter, that I gave up for adoption 39 years ago, found me on Facebook the week before Christmas, 2010. I have always looked for her and hoped that she had a good life. I had pretty much resigned myself to the fact that she would never find me when out of the blue, I get this message. I have 4 other children and none of them look much like me but when I saw this woman, I knew instantly that she was mine! We are meeting for the first time on New Year's Day!
I'm giving up my baby in September... I'm not sure how I'm going to make it afterward... I just hope my baby can have a warm, close family like I never had and will have all the opportunities I can't give her. I'm going to miss her for the rest of my life. I cry everyday thinking about not being able to be there for her. I pray to God that she will be happy and grow up in a loving and wonderful home.
@silverakisame I'm about 21 yrs and in april 2009 I gave my son to other people. I don't like to call it "giving him up" i like to call it "giving him a life" It is very hard I'm not going to sugar coat it all. but it has been hard. I posted vids up of him and he is so happy.
You know deciding to give your child up for adoption is a brave choice. Its much harder than sticking it out. I kept my daughter but it has been hard. I wish I could have given her more or acomplished my dreams. I didn't go to college. Now that she is out of highschool we will be going together. Maybe we can graduate together. Adoption is a selfless act. God Bless those who chose adoption over abortion.
And i can say the same of people who had it done . It was a difficult descision ,they will never forget it but in the end it was the best for their situation . So we are going to agree to disagree .
That just made me blubber. How nice, Claire! She's so fortunate to have you as her biological mom! I can't believe how much the two of you look alike!
I'm so glad that you found each other, butI am so sorry for the time that you lost with each other. Damn those money grubbing jerks who arrange adoptions.They are either stupid fools (social workers) or money-grubbing cheats (lawyers and adoption facilitators)
im just starting on this journey as a birth grandmother i hope my grandaughter wants to find us her real family in years to come i miss and love her so much and hopeoneday i get to tell her face to face and thanx for sharing this vid gives me a little hope for the future
I had to pause this four times so that I could stop crying enough to watch. What an absolutely beautiful reunion, and thank you so much for giving us the chance to share in it with you. I wish you all the best, & only hope that my reunion with my birthmother is as successful.
Very Beautiful, I hope One day after almost 28 years and Knowing each other for 7months, My relationship with my (Daughter) I gave up developes to this, I only think she is so Hurt By it all, and I can`t do noting to make it better Other to let her Know that Via-email, Via-text that I am here when she feels like she wants it to develope into somthing.
You two look identical! It was a beautiful story and beautiful video. I think it is so selfless to be able to give your baby up to a family that is better able to care for him/her.
I was 15 when I had my baby boy. I was young and so happy. I always wanted my baby and i thank GOD everyday my mom stood by me.I have 2 wonderful sons now and a wonderful husband. I just don't understand how anyone could give there baby away. I'm sitting here crying now and thanking GOD that I NEVER wanted to give my baby away.I would give my life up for my sons,that is how much I love them.
I can't help to cry. Tomorrow will be a emotional time of my life. I get to go through the reunion process and meet my siblings for the first time after all these years of being an only child. :Sniff:
Oh my, you look like twins!!! that was such a beautiful video, i am an adoption search angel volunteer and this is the exact reason i reunite families, the joy you get when you see a birth family reunite is price less!
i dare people to watch this and not cry,even though my daughters live at home with me it has inspired me to write a similar book for them when get older,there is no love as great as that between a mother and daughter and i think this clip caputures it perfectly,i wish u both all the best for the future in this crazy thing called life..x louisex england.x
they are exacly the same .

Abortion may be a difficult choice but it is not a positive one. No one wins. I know several people who have had abortions and they all regret it !
