A Thousand Times

An original song about adoption

by Amy Sugeno, LCSW

(Note: If video does not show above, click here to watch.)

     I wrote this song a few years ago because I needed to explore some feelings I had about my adoption. I had not yet met my birth mother and often wondered about her. Like me, adoptees often have a wide variety of feelings about their families and places of birth, their identity, and how to make sense of their life story.
