I don’t think I can say it often enough, but I really believe that every adoption experience is quite personal and while I have to admit there are alot of differences between myself and Juno, I cried when I saw this movie. It rang true for me in a way that no other fictional portrayal of adoption ever has.  No, I didn’t look in Penny Shopper for adoptive parents. No, I wasn’t in high school when I embarked on my journey as a birthmother. However, there were aspects and elements of the movie that hit so close to home that I saw it in the theater several times and I dragged friends to see it. I laughed and cried, just like real life…wonderfully done.
