Carnation, if you don't mind me asking, what are the races/ethnicities of your children? How many did you adopt altogether? What lead you and your husband to become adoptive parents?
I admire GOOD adoptive parents, because I know that being a parent is not easy, but to adopt a child adds possible extra challenges.
I think I might adopt later at some point. I used to work with a soror who was a foster mom (single parent) and her last set of kids were with her for 2 1/2 years. Good kids but a lot of baggage. They have now been placed with an adoptive family.
