orphans

[Gerianne]

I read a book about three orphans who were split up as children.
The oldest determined to find her siblings and be reunited with them.
Each of them was raised quite differently.
They each formed different views of the world.

Sounds interesting. What is the title and author?  I'm always looking for new authors to read.

Interesting for sure.  Only goes to show that every family teaches their children just a little bit differently how they view the world and its inhabitants.  I know my Mom was adopted at the age of 3 and she was brought up by an Italian family who gave her a very good life and taught her Christian values and Italian ways.  I often wonder what she would have been like if she had not been adopted - but then again, I might not have been here either!!

      There are so many orphans in this world. And I tell them: "Enjoy your life because your parents, even if they are gone, wish you happiness and success in your life".

My grandfather was French and his parents died on a ship on the way to America , There was an English family also traveling on that ship. They adopted my grandfather.  And when we were young and they would all get together her was my grandfather 6'3" with  coal black hair and then there was the English side, all blond and about 5'7 and shorter. But we loved them all and us kids didn't have a problem.
