I always loved her she will always be in my heart no matter where we are. I miss her a lot and wish I could be there for her. I know that she loves me deep down inside and both of us are happy that at least we met. One of the hardest things to do is give a child up for adoption but you know that you are doing what is best. Stephanie was my first and I never forgot her or stopped loving her even though I never knew where she was or if she was okay. I will always remember the day that we got to meet and see each other for the first time and even after 28 years she was still my little baby girl of long ago. That day filled a whole in my heart that had been empty for so long and eased the pain that I had carried around for many years. The tears of joy that filled our faces and all the hugs and kisses I will never forget. I hope I made the right decision in letting her go again because I may never see her again. I feel like I have give her away again but this time at I know where she is and maybe one day I will see her again. I love her very much and always will and at least I got the chance to tell her so. I am so thankful for having the chance to see her before I leave this world and I hope she does know just how much she means to me.
