Love how her daughter was attached to her sister without knowing anything.

My older sister died last month. I keep getting signs that her soul is still with me. Today I was driving into town thinking of her and out of nowhere a rainbow appeared. It hadn't rained that day in our town, perhaps it had farther away. I knew right then that she was with me. I pulled over and burst into tears. What a special person she was!

Serendipitous is my favorite word, especially for situations like this. You can't convince me the universe isn't all connected.

I was 'abandoned' by my father and my mother died at giving birth to me 12 years later my stepmother and biological father found me through social media turns out my Grandparents and relatives were lying when they said my dad 'abandoned' me right now I'm happy living with my step-mom whom I call mom cause she's very kind and open to me and my dad with my two baby half-sisters who are only 1 years old

None of these kinds of events are coincidences- it’s the Lord working!

Who else thought they were mother and daughter?

I’m also adopted and I hope I could find at least one of my biological siblings or parents, , this story is so amazing

A friend of mine had a son around 2011 and she put him up for open adoption 3 months later. She got to pick the couple who adopted her son and she has contact with them and her son. It’s a beautiful thing to see.

They’re beautiful sisters & I’m so happy they found each other.

Delightful story. What lucky women. Wishing both their families the best.

I just checked on my neighbor now( you never know) and I asked her who her father is. But instead of answering me she simply walked me out of her house. Lol
