Rita

Dedicated to the woman who chose me:

R is for resilient, going through storm after storm. Barely treading water but together we made it.

I is for independent. Teaching every life skill from cooking to yard work and cars, thanks to her I can do it all.

T is for teaching. Not only did she show me the ways of life but all those who came in contact with her may have learned a lil something.

A is for angel. This earth angel saved me from certain death, when I didn't know myself, she did. I thank God for our pairing and no one else could have done it better.

Being adopted doesn't define me, it's just a part of who I am. Being a mother myself, I can't imagine what it's like not to be able to have children. Not knowing my biological family at times is hard but no one could replace my mom and the life she gave me. God paired us together because we were good for one another.
