My twin sister and i sleep better now

[stronglady]

My twin sister Liz and I now sleep well at night,we reunited with our bio mom for the first time.It was emotional and tearful going through a box of tissues.We learned why she gave up for adoption,15 years old at the time and wanted a better life for us.This we both understood why she did this and wanted us together.My mom noticed something on me,my Marines tattoo and told her I did serve in the Marines.Thanked me for my service and learned something.Liz and I found out our dad served as well,in the Navy.Liz and I did ask about our dad and she said he is still alive.Talks to him on the phone and he does want to reunite with us.They divorced in 1986 having a son and daughter together.It took 10 years although there were dead ends and paid off.We are going to make up for lost time.Liz and I are going to be excited to be reunited with our dad when it comes time.
