I started this thread with a box of tissues in hand and have not let them go as I keep reading. It wasn't really an "Aha" moment for me but the other day I had another special moment with my daughters. My oldest DD and I had been getting the house cleaned up before Christmas company and making dinner together. Without looking up, she said casually, "Mom, if I had been born to other parents, I would wish that YOU were MY Mommy." The potato peeler just slipped from my hands and I started to tear up.
