One of our most frequently reoccurring questions we get is why do we keep in touch with the birth family. Probably the simplest answer is that we love them. Why keep in touch with your parents? Your in-laws? Even if your spouse died you'd likely keep in touch if you liked them at all. They'll always be a part of you. The birth family will always be a part of Ezra and because Ezra is very important to us, they'll always be a part of us. I think if you follow our blog you could easily feel the same way.
The next major reason is that they love Ezra. It's easy to love anyone who loves our son, in a healthy way (we're not ready to consider teenage romantic love yet). They love us too. The placement of our son was so heart wrenching and yet joyful. We were all working together to bring about the best thing for Ezra. We grew together in such a unique situation of joy and sorrow and then comforted by the spirit. It's the kind of close relationship we don't want to break off.
