571. Dcpdlperotti : My birth father played college tennis at a Washington DC school. He was 5’8" and from a midwestern state and has blue eyes. My birth mother went to the same school and was from the same hometown and was younger. My oldest son is a college senior and playing his last season of college tennis so we are a bit fascinated that this genetic trait was so strong! I only recently found out this information about my birth father and I would like to find him and my mother to thank them for having me. I would be open to knowing if I have any siblings or half-siblings. I have 3 kids in college and I’m married and established with a good job. I was adopted via the Barker Foundation.
