Dear Patricia...
Remember when you received the letter from NYS...remember how it made you feel?
You knew in your heart that you and your son were a match. A piece of paper wouldn't make it anymore real to you. But, you felt for the sake of others believing that your heart was true that you should register.
And then it came in the mail...you held it close to your heart...you cried...you were somehow validated by the state of New York. The state of New York was PLEASED to inform you that you were both a match. The state of New York wished you a successful reunion. The same state that sealed any chance of a reunion so many years ago. The same state that held and still holds those "secret" papers somewhere....that original birth certificate.
BUT you held that paper....You called YOUR SON....he got his papers that day also....and you cried and you said...
IT'S A BOY!
A beautiful boy...ten fingers...ten toes...all swaddled in blue...
NOW you can finally celebrate his birth...NOW you can shout it from the roof tops...NOW you no longer have to hold that secret...NOW you have him in your life...
and NOW YOU CAN LOVE AND BE LOVED!
