1 day ago…

In late July, Kim Hoa arranged her work to fly back to Ho Chi Minh City, as promised, to reunite with her Vietnamese family. This trip was even more special for the French girl, as she was accompanied by her husband, Etienne Gouguet, and her adoptive mother, Marie-France.

One day before returning to Binh Duong , where Kim Hoa's biological family lives, we met in District 1 (HCMC) to share our travel plans. The French girl confided that before the flight departed, she was so nervous that she couldn't sleep.

Because in Kim Hoa's mind, she only thought about the upcoming meeting with her biological parents that she had always longed for. It was difficult for the girl to express all the special feelings at this moment in words, only knowing that she had never experienced it before in her life.

"I'm wondering what to wear tomorrow," Kim Hoa shared. Everyone around burst out laughing.

During this meeting, Ms. Kim Hoa also reunited with Ms. Nguyen Hai Uyen, the kind nurse in Ho Chi Minh City who helped the family have a miraculous reunion today. Ms. Uyen put aside her work to continue accompanying the French girl on the trip tomorrow.

So, everything was ready. The night in Ho Chi Minh City, in a hotel in the heart of District 1 passed so long…

Happiness amidst "good omens"

Early in the morning, in the cozy little house in the middle of Phuoc Vinh town (Phu Giao district, Binh Duong) of Mr. Nguyen Van Bang (64 years old) and Mrs. Than Thi Nga (61 years old), Kim Hoa's biological parents, there was a lot of laughter and talking.

All the French girl’s siblings and nieces, some of whom lived as far away as Ca Mau , gathered here. The whole family, excited and nervous, held a cozy party to welcome Kim Hoa, the youngest sister, back home after 30 years.

Mrs. Nga confided that in the past few days, the couple had not been able to sleep at night, always thinking about holding their child in their arms. Their health had declined due to illness, they tried to keep their spirits stable, not to get too emotional, but it was difficult to hold back the tears of parents who were about to reunite with their child.

The whole family eagerly bought two bouquets of bright flowers, with loving words in French that Mrs. Nga's granddaughter used... "Google Translate", to prepare to give to Kim Hoa and her adoptive mother. Everything was done, Mr. Bang's family counted down the seconds to welcome Kim Hoa and her family.

"We're almost there!", hearing Uyen's announcement over the phone, the whole family quickly went out to the road in front of the house, waiting. At noon, the French girl's bus departing from Ho Chi Minh City had arrived. Kim Hoa stepped out of the bus wearing a charming Vietnamese ao dai.

Naturally, all members of the Vietnamese and French families hugged each other in tears. The hug seemed to erase the distance of language, time and geography. After 3 decades, Kim Hoa was once again happy in the arms of her biological parents and siblings. Everything was like yesterday.

Right at the moment the family hugged and reunited, a heavy rain suddenly poured down. Everyone quickly moved inside the house. "Perhaps, the people up above were also moved to tears of joy for our family reunion. This is a good omen!", shared Ms. Nguyen Thi Kim Huong, Kim Hoa's sister.

Meeting of 2 mothers

Outside it was raining heavily, but inside the small house it was still surprisingly warm. Words of love, encouragement, and countless stories from all those years were told by both families, full of emotion and affection.

Sharing with reporters, Ms. Kim Hoa said that this moment was like a dream, a miracle. It was so magical that she thought it was not real. The French girl was extremely happy and this will be a day she will never forget in her life.

I remember one day, during a phone call, Kim Huong, my sister, told me about her childhood memories of sticky rice with Kim Hoa, along with the advice: "Come home, visit your family, I'll buy you a sticky rice package!". That day, Huong approached, shyly gave Kim Hoa that special sticky rice package, tears streaming down her face. Her younger sister took her sister's sticky rice package and ate it deliciously.

Kim Hoa's biological mother hugged her adoptive mother, Marie-France, and expressed her deepest gratitude to the French couple for raising their daughter with all the love they had. Now, Kim Hoa has become a warm, kind girl who has not forgotten her roots.

In response, Mrs. Marie-France was moved: "I am extremely happy to adopt Kim (Kim Hoa's French name - PV). I thank you for giving birth to her, the wonderful daughter who came into our lives. As a mother, I understand your feelings when you have to be away from your child. But now, Kim is back! Kim's father cannot return, but he still has words of thanks to give to you and your husband."

CAO AN BIEN

The French mother said that adopting Kim Hoa was a blessing for her and her husband. When she found out that Kim Hoa had found her birth family, she was a little worried, afraid that she would lose her daughter. But now, on this special day, Marie-France feels only love and happiness.

Immediately afterwards, the family had a warm traditional Vietnamese meal together.

Recreate old moments

The special gift that Kim Hoa gave to her biological parents is an album recording her entire growth process from the days she was adopted in Vietnam to having a happy family with 2 children like today.

Mrs. Marie-France and Ms. Kim Hoa flipped through the album pages, explaining the content of the photos, making Mr. Bang and Mrs. Nga emotional. They felt like they were witnessing their daughter's journey of growing up, and were comforted to know that she was living beautiful and happy days in France.

Seeing Kim Hoa reunite with her family, Mr. Bang felt a little sad for his youngest daughter, Nguyen Thi Kim Huyen, who was also adopted by the couple. Kim Huyen was found by Kim Hoa not long ago, during a search in France.

"It's a pity that Huyen couldn't come back this time so that the whole family could reunite like before. But it's okay, we still look forward to the day when Kim Hoa and Kim Huyen can all come back together, I have no more hopes or regrets," Mr. Bang expressed.

Although a piece of the puzzle was missing, the whole family decided to recreate a 30-year-old photo of all the family members in the thatched house. It was this photo that helped them find each other.

The reunion opened a new chapter in the lives of the two French-Vietnamese girls and also of their families and relatives in Vietnam. Kim Hoa will stay with her biological family for many more days, before returning to France to continue her work and life. From here, in Vietnam, Kim Hoa has a peaceful and happy place to return to…

Online reunion between Kim Huyen and her biological family

Immediately after finding her sister, in early June 2024, Kim Hoa met and organized an online reunion with her biological family. The two sisters spent many hours confiding and chatting with their biological parents and siblings, understanding each other's lives better. Although she could not return with her sister this time, Kim Huyen said she would arrange time to visit her relatives when convenient. When talking about the family photo from years ago, when Kim Huyen expressed: "If it had been taken like before, my father would not have been able to hold my sister!" Hearing that, everyone in the family burst into laughter.
