Summary: There is no question that however they come to us, our children are our greatest gifts. While awaiting their arrival, we can’t help but dream of our life with them and once they’re here, we could never imagine it without them. Just as every family is unique, so too can be the way they are formed. The one thing they all have in common is love. Love is what binds us and truly makes a family. As a surrogate mother twice baked, let me share a love letter to your child that I shared with mine when I first became a surrogate mother. As an experienced social worker that has worked with children and families, this will not be a lesson in biology or reproduction. Instead, this is a lesson of love, hope, and faith that shows how families come together in sometimes different ways, how your children can share in this excitement, and what part their mother plays in it all. No matter the journey, the ultimate gift is a precious new life - just as when they were born. Children are always more open, supportive, and accepting of changes in their environments when a dialogue is opened with love and simple explanations. With that being said, I truly hope that this story will help your child to embrace surrogacy with the same love that mine has.
