Five of our 13 are adopted--4 from Asia and one who is Central American but born here in town. I knew her birthmother. We exchange Christmas cards and pictures with one of the Asian birthmoms.
We could probably find most of the other birthmothers if we searched but it's still such a stigma in those countries to give birth when you're unmarried that I don't know if we will. The moms are probably in their thirties and forties now--with new families.
