Their Child

It was their daughter that Lehmann’s parents had put up for adoption. Their family was incomplete without her. However, the two had different thoughts on it. Whereas Dennis was sure that their daughter would accept them wholeheartedly, Karen was in doubts. What if their truth would ruin her life? Dennis tried to convince her, “I found you now, and my life will be complete if we find our daughter.” It was then Karen agreed. First, they found the adoption agency that had put up their daughter for adoption. The couple wrote a letter requesting the agency to give them information about the current address of their daughter. After a few days, they received a letter from the agency.        

Found Her

The agency had managed to locate their daughter even after all these years. Denise had adopted a new name as well, Jean Voxland. The woman was 56 years old and was living a happy married life with three children. Furthermore, she was not living much farther from her biological parents in Kenyon Minnesota. So how did Jean react? 

The Letter

Jean received a letter informing her that a family member of hers wanted to come in contact with her. Initially, she took it as a scam and threw the letter in the trash. However, her husband had different thoughts. He decided to inquire about it. After doing some detective work he found that the letter indeed had come from an adoption agency. It was then Jean decided to answer. Her astonishment knew no bounds when she learned that it was her biological parents who wanted to see her.      

Contacting Agency

After getting the letter from her parents, Jean Voxland decided to have words with the agency. Jean had tried looking for her birth parents some years ago but never achieved anything. When the news reached to Vinars, they were extremely happy. Dennis had never seen her. So he was very thrilled. But now the question was would their daughter understand why they had given her up? They were soon going to see each her in the Lutheran Social Services office.            

Meeting Them

They had set up a meeting in late May of 2016. The venue was offices of Lutheran Social Services in Saint Paul, Minnesota. They all were initially nervous. However, their nervousness turned into happiness when they saw each other. Jean felt an immediate connection with them.

Divine Intervention

Jean explained, “I feel like there’s been divine intervention here. For…us to get together the way we did, everybody had to be in the right place at the right time.” Now their family has grown quite large. Why would it not be? Their family comprises of Dennis’ three children, Karen’s son from their former marriage, and now Jean and her family.
