This book tells the story of the author's early childhood. She was neglected and abandoned, and, at one year, didn't sit up or even crawl. Adopted with her twin sister by two loving parents during World War II, she grew strong quickly and had a rich young life. After her daddy died when she was nine, her mother remarried and she was adopted again. How did she cope with a new father, a new last name, moving from a village to a large city, three new homes, and two new schools in the same year? How did she deal with her second father's death, then caring for and burying her mother, all before she was an adult? What happened when her birth mother knocked on her door? In addition, there are personal accounts of adoption experiences of others, and the author's thoughts on adoption in general. Miner writes: Writing my story has been an adventure; a journey of smiles and tears, of yearning for the joy of those days - and those people - gone forever now.
