the visit.....

ok, so the visit is almost over........and i have so many mixed, but not-unblogged...emotions about it.........my daughter traveled many hours yesterday to meet her birth mother's mother.........and when i asked her the name of this person......my daughter could not tell me.....because it had never occurred to her to ask...and/or never occurred to her birth mother to tell her......or to the grandmother to announce it..........as a person enamored of genealogy i am astounded by this behavior......but neither surprised nor angered.......what i can tell you about this visit....is that i am probably the only one who has a problem with it....i am the one who is basically judgmental, elitist, and close-minded..........and i have to take this into consideration when friends ask 'how is it going'..........maybe i can be my own support group.....'my name is kc-w, and i am an intolerant bitch........'
