TWENTY ONE ~ Learning we all have the right to sing our own song Brother Steve

Brother Steve has a different Song ( path ) than mine

The Genealogy Tune is different for everyone.

My personal search for mom "LENORA Jennings" has become an all consuming melody that plays itself over and over again in my head. I ponder what else I can search for, what name, a different state, etc that can break this stale mate. I read articles & discuss it with those friends who are interested ( if they are true friends, then they get the info regardless if they are tired of it all - LOL) Even my Private Face book page with some true Search Angles, gets a regular posting to see if anyone found something new. I often check the documents I posted there to read again, bc I worry I have missed some key piece of Information. Even after all this time, I will stay at the PC until the wee hours of the night...maybe there is a New  "Ancestry DNA Match" that I haven't seen before. Maybe someone out there knows about my mom ~ it CAN happen, right?

A different Song for my Brother Steve

My excitement about everything connected to my mom includes my Brother Steve. He requested his non-identifying information from the Children's Aid Society of Canada. Well they weren't kidding...there was Nothing that could help in our search. After some gentle coaxing I got him to request the same for his Bio-dad. My thought was maybe if I located HIM, there might be a chance to find our mom. I was a little surprised when "Brother Steve" said HE wasn't interested in finding his Bio-dad!?!?!? Pardon me??? WAIT, What??? Don't you want to know if you have any other 1/2 siblings, aunts uncles, grandparents....maybe your dad is still alive? Aren't you curious? 

 Brother Steve said  "I always wanted to know about my mother and thought it would be nice to have a sister ~  my search is over now" WOW, I will admit it is hard for me to understand, BUT  I realize that we ALL have a different thirst for our roots. My husband and a close friend have NO desire to know what happened in the past, or meet any New relatives. They could care less.

My search for mom continues

SO I will accept that my Brother Steve and I have different journeys but we have a Joint mission of finding out what has happened to our mother. It would fill an emotional void to know her final resting place....to pay homage to the woman who gave us life. If she has passed, I would like to visit her grave and say a Prayer. Maybe talk to her for awhile and tell her how much I miss her.

My voyage is not over yet ~ still hoping to find my mom, LENORA JENNINGS
