Wowza, a dad and 2 sisters, and a baby girl!!So, lots of news. I went to the doctor today and I'm having a . . . *drumroll, please* . . . girl! Woohoo!
Also, I talked to my biological father on the phone for about an hour today. I matched with his sister, he remembers my mom, and he was in Iowa at the right time. When I first found out that Fake Father 1 wasn't my real dad, I asked my Aunt Jody - who was hanging out with my mom around that time - if she knew anything and she said that my mother told her it was some guy building the Wal*Mart. Well, that gave me nothing to go on. But it turns out, that was true! My father was working construction and building the new Wal*Mart. A name would have been helpful.
The whole family is being really welcoming. I've talked to 2 of his sisters on Facebook today. I have 2 younger sisters, but they don't know about me, yet. Ed (father) said he's going to call them this evening and tell them. My head is spinning. It's all so overwhelming, but exciting. He lives in Florida, so meeting face to face won't happen right away. Plans will be made, though. I barely know what to think.
