giftedhands Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 thank you for the warm welcome..xoxoxox..lester children are wonderful I know that god has a reason for me not being able to have my own children, that is so I can love a child that needs a "real" mommy. I say this b/c there is mommy's that do not want them or take care of them and god knows we would be great mother's to these children so I have been one of the chosen ones to be a real mommy. well thats my thinking but to me it is realistic thinking I have to say adoption is wonderful, but not so easy. it has made me enjoy every moment of my childs life good or bad. good luck to you xo mandy.
