laura and wayne...

my birth mother was 15 when she became pregnant. She was sent to live with her older sister. I was placed for adoption at the time of my birth.

 

after years of searching I found my birth mother at the age of 33. I was extremely nervous during our first phone conversation. All I could think to ask was “do you have big feet?” and “do you like bologna and pickle sandwiches.”

 

after several months we finally met and bonded - today I am truly blessed to call her mom.

wayne and I met in 1985 when we both joined the military. We exchanged letters for a few months and then lost contact.

 

in 2007 after 22 years of separation, Wayne contacted me through classmates.com.

 

July 18 - we meet for the first time...

 

July 18 - a Peterbilt semi destroys the motorcycle Wayne is riding... 

July 18 - we were married...

we are soulmates...
