I met my birth parents after 23 years of silence.

I knew this day would come, and I still wasn’t ready for it…

I was adopted at birth by two incredible parents - I’ve always known it. After two decades of complete silence, I found my birth parents.

The fact that I am alive, married to Alexa, and blessed with my parents is a complete miracle. I feel so blessed to know my birth parents now and to figure out what the future holds.

If you know anyone who’s thinking about adoption or is adopted, please share this with them.

Thanks for watching. 🤍
