We got together for a catch up this past weekend. Ava is at an age where she understands she has brothers now. She was so excited to see ‘big brother RJ!’, and she counted down the sleeps like it was Christmas.
This is what direct contact leads to… happy, connected siblings ❤️
We've had an influx of people finding us on social media lately. Most know of our podcast. However, Laura also wrote a book that takes a deeper dive into her journey as a birth mother. It has been highly recommended in the adoption sector. Here's the link:

Great to hear @Adoption_Counts renaming their letterbox team to'Keeping Connections' team. Language is so important!!👍👍👏👏 @ADCStweets @chelrawlings81 @VickyDBoyd
Are there agencies that can support in initiating direct contact with our kids' birth parents? LA will offer nothing except a webinar and won't fund anything external. We wd pay if there is a service out there but can't find anything - support all seems to be for adopted adults.
City University of London is conducting an anonymous survey for survivors of rape and sexual offences to share their experience of the police.

If you haven't already purchased it, here is a link to Laura's book where she tells her story of how she became a birth mother and the lasting impact that has had on her, as well as detailing how we came together to do 'direct contact'.
