Adoption Talk!



The International Adoptive Families of SWMO has asked me to share some of my personal stories concerning my adoption. They asked me to talk about my visits to South Korea and my meetings with my birth family. I encourage adoptive families to go--not for me--but to meet other adoptive families.

We're meeting tonight (Sat. Nov. 18) at 6:30pm at the Pathways Methodist Church on Dale Street in Springfield, MO. (Formerly the Dale Street Church)

The above picture is me. Notice I didn't have a name, but a number. A social worker named me Hyun Sook Park, sometime after this picture was taken.

Michelle,

Hey what did the name the social worker gave you mean? But that is not what matters most. I'm thankful you had wonderful adoptive parents that brought you to that small town In Mo, And I had the oppurtunity to get to know you!
