Celebrating

YOU

CELEBRATING YOU

Dear BirthMothers,

On this day, we would like to celebrate those who made the choice of adoption for their children; some willingly, some not so willingly. We acknowledge and celebrate those mothers who gave up their children so others could become mothers. We want you to know, we see you. We hear your silent cries. We celebrate your sacrifice and share in your tears. We are with you today and every day.

We would like to honor you this year by creating a digital ceremony that you can perform at home on May 8th, the day of our previously scheduled luncheon. We cannot be physically together today, but we can be together in spirit. You have received a ceremony care package to help guide you in your reflection, celebration, and healing.

Wishes for your child

Please use the stationary included in your care package to write a note to your child including your wish for them this year.

Candle Lighting

Seed Planting

In honor of our rose ceremony, we would like to give you a special seed packet of herbs that goes with the tea packet in your box. We hope they both nourish your soul on this very special day.
