Entry 4: Open Adoption

July 1, 2031

It has been ten years since I had my baby, and since I have decided to have an open adoption, I have received many pictures of the child I gave birth to growing up. I have also visited my child on their birthday and seen them on occasions. My child knows I gave birth to them, but they also know that I am not their mother because I am not the one who raised and provided for them. But I am happy that I decided to stay in their life and be able to watch them grow up.
