The reason why this holiday means so much to me is because it was the day I was legally adopted into my family. 3/17/06 is the date 6 months old. This will be my 20th.
As young as I can my parents have told me I am adopted. All I know about my birth mom is she was 18, 5’6, Irish, and played piano. She hid me till the day I was born.
We celebrated this holiday every year. In elementary school I would bring in themed treats to celebrate with peers. This tradition was from kindergarten to 6th grade.
I even get gifts like it was a birthday. I got mine already is I got my ears pierced and a new computer. I needed one for a long time and it comes in on the 19th. Partially my money from my .
I know I am lucky to have a decent family that cares and loves me. They made me feel like I was part of the family. There was never discrimination from being adopted to my older brother. We are equal not one is better or worse we are even.
