Something happen...Sorry I've been away so long. Something happened to my reader so I didn't see any updates from you for a while - aka I am uber lame.<br /><br />I like your stance on this post. I read a book by an author who was an only child of two only children and I can't imagine a life without brothers (well, I don't per say), sisters, aunts, uncles and cousins. <br /><br />You are amazing. I miss you!AubreyMohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13963616274991709000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3980531981336832789.post-13575591834063601242010-12-04T22:23:54.730-07:002010-12-04T22:23:54.730-07:00Loved that post! I told Brielle's birth parent...Loved that post! I told Brielle's birth parents that we are hoping to adopt again and they were super happy about it too. You are right there are no guarantees that couples will adopt a second, third time or more but, there is something to be said for the parents who find different avenues to FIND thier kids besides LDS adoption. I think sometimes people GIVE UP or decide that the wait is too long so, i guess that's the answer. I can't help but think of the many kids in third world countries and in the foster care systems who are DYING for parents like these sweet couples. I always say to couples and friends "God doesn't Care HOW your kids come into your family- He just wants them there. So, if you have to jump through hoops a bit, save more $$$$$, fly to a different country, feel the pains of "maybe/ hopefully ours" through fost- adoption or whatever. God knows you have the Strength to do it. It's just YOUR choice to listen to where He is leading and guiding you in this journey."<br />You are awesome Jill!CCmommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14896105297510336260noreply@blogger.com
