Beth says what I was going to. If I got such a letter, I'd want to respond quickly, but probably not by phone. Good luck with it. She's a lucky person to be related to you and the amazing Miss Em.
The dentist said that the stitches where my tooth was would come out on their own. Most have, but one is driving me insane and it seems to be camped in there for the long haul.
Also, I'm making the ATK recipe for pulled pork in my crockpot. I have been smelling it all day and I think I'm about to eat a television remote and a couple of pens.
I would change the wording of "I would very much like" into something more definitive to make it clear that he does not have control over your actions, only his. Like, "I am going to."
(Whoops, hit post early.)
But other than that, I think it sounds great.
Is there a reason you'd be waiting till March, Aimee?

Funny, I think Mr. Peabody is posting for Ginger!

I just picked March randomly, fwiw.
Oh wow Aimee - big day! Good luck, and I hope it all turns out for the best.
It seems like about a month would be a good amount of time to sit with the information and give him a chance to let his other daughter know if that's what he wants to do.
Aimee, what will you do if he responds that she already knows about you and doesn't want to be contacted?

I wouldn't put any faith in that at all, really. Either way, I'd go ahead with the letter.
I think that's one reason I'd hesitate to notify bio-dad. Not only might he lie, he also might decide to paint a nasty picture of you or your mom and taint the whole process. I can see the other side of the argument too, though. Notifying him first might make things easier in the long run. Tricky, really, the whole thing. Tons of ~ma as you figure it out, hon.
