You know, accepting who you are is so important. Whether you’re adopted or not. Now that I’ve heard everyone else’s story, I guess it’s only fair I tell my own. But…it’s so hard. Kind of emotional.
(Holding back her feelings)
You see, I lost my parents when I was very young. My aunt and uncle adopted me.
(With uncertainty in her voice)
I was so grateful...except— well—they already had three kids of their own. I’ve always felt a little bit like an outsider. But in time, I realized how much they care for me… It was quite a production adding me to their family. And more than just show—it was real and for a lifetime. There’s nothing like family. And today, meeting great people like you guys, I feel like I’m part of a wonderful, new family. Thank you, all.
