my cousin was adopted, and then 3 years later my aunt was pregnant, and then 4 years later, she was pregnant again. my cousin knows he is adopted and they are a very happy family. all 3 boys were treated the same amongst all my family...which i know may seem like it would be the norm, but after hearing some other traumatizing stories, i consider it a blessing.'
i, too, plan on having a "brood" of kids. i wanna be pregnant and all that (maybe...this back pain has about killed all desire for labor

), but i really want to adopt. not just babies, either. i know there are plenty of pre-teens, teens, "
non-infants" out there that need perfectly good homes, too.
