I grew up with the desire to adopt. My only sibling, my brother, was adopted into our family when I was 7. That is what my 'growing up' family looked like...and now so does my 'parenting' family. Our biological children were 14 and 11 when we were approved and welcomed our youngest son from Korea. I know there are reasons for and against both domestic and foreign adoptions. Listen to your heart! If one is just right for you..THAT is the way you should go. Drew was 4 months old when they put him into my arms, but he was MINE before that! He is 15 now, smart as a tack, challenges me EVERYDAY....and is the light of my life. Let us know how your adoption story turns out! We are all behind you...
