In my case i am grateful to my biological mom for giving me to a loving family. that's always what my parents told me, my mom really wanted me, but she made a great sacrifice to give me a better life. and it was the truth. I am grateful to both my biological mother and my adoptive parents.

Yeah I absolutely agree with that. It must be heart breaking for a mother to give her baby up for adoption and I believe there are very few women who could carry a baby in them for 9 months and not feel devastated to have to give that baby away
