... in every life.
A turning point. A significant event. A change, a doppleganger shift.
A reconciliation. A revelation.
An inspiration.
A declaration.
A celebration of ending and beginning, beginning and ending.
A moment, stilled forever in time.
Frozen.
So it is for me a moment where
February 18, 2008
meets
October 29, 1970.
Hands and hearts reach across the planet, and
words, dropped in excitement
spread out like ripples across a pond, wider.
waves bring word
the Buzz begins, momentum builds
we wait, we wait, we wait.
Anticipate,
and wait some more,
but happy, and not really
not really the same anymore.
** oh happy day **
i listen and dance
remembering
yeah. how He taught me how to
"...watch. fight. and pray."
and don't forget about
Rejoicing Every Day!
dancing dancing dancing

Hi Cathy! I had my Mom over for dinner the other night, after a fine feast we juggled the little guys around for a bit as we laughed and played. Then I told her I would like to show her something, so off we went to the computer and positioned ourselves in front of the monitor. I didnt so much as hint at the enormity ahead. As I opened my mail box I was telling her about the first message I found from a "Cathy Rowekamp" on Friday February 15. The moment she saw the words "birth Mom" her eyes began to well up with tears and she looked up towards the heavens to reach out to my Dad as Im sure she wanted to hold him in her arms and have him there to comfort and share in this moment. With my arm around her I took her through our little journey. It was a beautiful moment we shared together as Mother and Son. It was very important to me that she realize that I would never forget the 1 in a million woman that Ive called "Mommy" all of my life, and would never waiver. With that established we excitedly ventured through my "Cathy" file, as I shared all of the things (at least the ones I could remember in my overwhelmed state) we discussed on the phone for our 84 minutes that glorious Monday. I went through each message in the order recieved and we took our time reading through each them. The final message we opened contained a link I had yet to explore so we did it together. With a simlpe "click" of the mouse we both leaned back in disbelief as the page opened up with these large orange letters "One of those seminal moments Adam" Wow.... we both sat there mouths agape in undeniable awe! A once in a lifetime experience I wont soon forget, nor will my Mom for that matter! Awesome. Its hard to wrap my head around all of this, Ive been so comfortable as the "missing link" all of my life, reading your beautiful words sure makes things feel like life is moving in the right direction. I know that we are awaiting comlete,total and absolute proff positive in regards to our situation, but with a head start such as this I couldnt ask for much more and I hope it all comes together, I would be proud to be an apple from your tree!
