Friday I was flipping through the channels while Mason & I were coloring in the family room and I came to "The Baby Story" and it was showing the lady delivering the baby. Mason turned to me and asked if the baby was coming from the mommies tummy and I said "yes." Next he asked if all babies come from their mommies tummies. Instantly I thought "here I go" and I explained to him how the girls came from my tummy but explained to him how he came to me from Russia. I thought how am I going to explain to him that he was born from another mommies tummy. I'm not ready for him to know that he has another mommy out there. I know the day will come but should it be at the age of 4. I wasn't so sure. Mason knows he is adopted and he has his very own
"Story" and we talk openly about it to him and he will tell others that he was in Russia looking for a mom and dad and we were looking for a little boy and god searched for the perfect match for each of us and when we saw each other we fell instantly in love with "Pavel" better known now as Mason James Paul Peck.I know I will have to tell Mason more someday about his Russian family because he does have a birth mom, brother & sister that someday he probably will want to meet and I will never hold him back from that. I don't know the circumstances as to why his birth mom had to give him up, but I am so grateful to her.
I'm rambling. It's bath time so we better get it going.
Thanks to all for listening.
Much love,
The Peck's
PS:
