d her adopted parents, but obviously they weren't her birth parents. She has always had a desire to find her real parents. The only information her adopted parents could give her was the name of her biological mother and where she lived a while ago. The adoption agency was no help either, because they weren't allowed to give out private information. Katie even tried using the internet to find more information on her mother, but she didn't find anything. She had so many things to talk to her biological parents about, and she was very curious to hear what has become of them.Katie hoped that if she looked at them, she would detect some kind of resemblance. She had always wondered why her parents had placed her up for adoption and just wanted the opportunity to say thank you for giving her life and the chance to lead a wonderful life with her adopted family. Katie tried to get past her need to speak to them or at least see them so she would know for sure where they were living and if they were even alive at all. She finally gave up when her money and leads dried up. It was on a last ditch trip to the adoption agency that she met a brand new woman employed at the adoption agency.
Katie pondered whether or not the woman at the adoption agency would provide her with the information she so desperately wanted. When she started to ask, the woman started to nod her head even before all the words came out of her mouth. The woman apologized and explained that they couldn't release any contact information. Just when all hope was lost, the woman approached Katie and told her that she was adopted as well and couldn't help directly, but knew of a good website that could. The woman wrote the URL for the website on a tiny scrap of paper and hand it to Katie.
Once she returned to her house, Katie found the online site, noting that it had a line to enter a name. Thinking back to the lady at the adoption agency, she entered her birth mom's name. In no time, the website turned up her most recent address and phone number. Katie was astounded. She had been searching so long, and suddenly she had discovered the location of her real mom. Once she had a moment to get her bearings, Katie at last phoned the number that the website had displayed.
Katie responded to the voice of the lady answering on the line, "Hello, I'm Katie, and I've been searching for my biological mom. Thirty years ago, did you decide to put your infant daugh
ter up for adoption?" After an interval of silence, there was the sound of sobbing from the other end of the phone. Katie was amazed that at long last, she had discovered her biological mom. Since that time, she has become acquainted with her biological mom along with her half brothers and sisters. While her dad had died years earlier, Katie was grateful to get acquainted with all her other family members. She wouldn't have ever discovered this information without help and the internet.
