I'm Sorry Adoptee Greeting Card

"I'm Sorry" Adoptee Greeting Card: Each piece of clothing becomes a bold and unique statement, and every item tells a story.

Inside Card: "I can't imagine how being adopted feels, especially the complexities that come with the journey. But I'm here if you need me."

This adoption greeting card speaks for many adoptees, and our non-adopted friends and family sometimes can't fully understand the journey because they aren't adopted themselves. Sometimes, it's hard to find the right words to say, so this card is a great addition to the adoption constellation and for anyone who knows or loves an adoptee.

Sometimes, we experience grief so big we become paralyzed. Sometimes, we feel rejection, which is all-consuming. Sometimes, we feel like we are going to be smothered with feelings of a broken heart. Sometimes we feel like we have a hole in our hearts that will never heal. FYI: Not all reunions and adoption stories are positive experiences.

It means the world to adoptees to know that those close to us want to learn and listen to our experiences. This adoptee card serves as a warm hug of understanding because understanding is love.

Fun fact: Why is all the emporium merchandise a dollar amount and 21 cents? I was twenty-one years old when I found and met my birth mother. It was the best day of my life and a symbolic experience in my adoption journey. Sadly, I met her once, and she shut me out forever. The best day of my life was the worst because I never heard from her again.

Twenty-one years of agony passed, hoping she would change her mind. But she never did. Surviving this abandonment and rejection has been one of the most harrowing experiences of my life, but I made it. At one point, I was convinced I would die from a broken heart, but today, my heart is healed, and I feel whole. I am here to share my story and let other adoptees know they aren't alone and their feelings are normal for a not-normal situation. Nothing is normal about being separated from our biological parents at the beginning of life.
