I’ve got a theme going here. Apologies to Mikey if he took offense. I changed my lock screen to DD’s mom.

Showing a strong commitment there, Art. Laughter and tears and all that. Congrats Mikey!

I didn’t take offense but I thought it was a little creepy.

I didn’t see the original & thought you had a thing for Betsy Devos


Pretty cool, Mikey

That's awesome Mike! I too want to hear the story when you have time.

Ok so....
The long and short of it is that I’ve always known I was adopted but I never knew much about it until recently when I got a call from my 1/2 sister. Turns out that my birth mother was someone I’ve known all my life. She was the daughter of someone my adopted mom worked with. My birth mom was 16 when she got knocked up and decided to give me up for adoption. It wasn’t meant to be an open adoption, but her family and my family were good friends. Her dad was like a grandfather to me. In fact, unbeknownst to me, he was my grandfather. My birth mom always knew and I never did. She kept her secret. I never really needed to know, never went looking. But her daughter, my 1/2 sister, needed to have closure after she was told what’s up. So now I have a new family.

That’s about as brief and simple as I can tell it.

Fuckin A. Good story. My wife too was adopted and has never looked for her parents as, like you, she was content with her adopted parents.
Ho w fuckin nuts to get a call from a long lost half sister.

I don't understand the 1/2 sister.

Edit... Oh her daughter.

So mikey, was you bio-dad a Russian secret double-agent, at least. Or an alien from the future?

Do you think it was the cankles?

7 other people didn’t mind my “crankles”.

If you get a chance, watch “Kissed by God”.
Andy Irons documentary by TGR.
Very, very good.

Very good. Heartbreaking, but I already knew that.
