ORIGINAL: Gwynvyd Aww Sage, that was so wonderful of her to do that. I really love the whole adoption thing. I have had many friends who were adopted. My honey and I have thought about helping out our minister and his partner. They want a baby soooo badly. After this last trimester I am a bit more weary of it. *breathes a bit heavy grimacing* I am no longer a spring chicken.. and this one has taken a toll on me. The other life stuff sure isnt helping either. Hopefully in the future we can adopt a third. I think I am done birthin babies. I love sonograms.. we got one of Gabe sucking his thumb. The 3-d ones are just freaky as hell though. Look like little lizards. *shudders* Gwyn, who can amazingly still curl up into a realitvely small ball. Those first views are amazing, they didnt do those back in the day, plus you didnt know what the sex was till they were born. Sonos were reserved for high risk. My friends started in NJ as foster parents, and I was living with them so got to play with the 2 we had, one was a 4 day old baby, the other was 18 months. They were going to try through the fost-adopt program but we moved to VA. Going through the an agency will break you for life. It all came about that I had to go home because of an incident. My daughter and I was out smoking outside and somewho got into a conversation where she admitted she had an abortion because she just wasnt financially stable to raise 3. I mentioned if it ever happened again that my friend was desperate for a baby And she up and said....I will have one for them, no long thoughts, we talking with her partner and he said he didnt have a problems and it was good to go. 2 months later she was preggers. She never thought about it being her baby from the beginning of the brewing to birth, if the baby when on a kicking spree she would go find the future mom or dad so they could share. The last 2 months she stayed with us in VA. It honestly could not have gone any smoother for such a difficult gift to give, as while many say oh I could do that, it takes a very special person to actually do it without ending grieving and feeling lose. She didnt even go through post partium blues. She was just happy that my friends had an angel of their own, the new angel looked alot like many in my family. We do make pretty babies. I say Angel because thats always been what we called my daughter, and she did certainly earn her wings. The baby is now 3 calls me TeeTee as I somehow got branded with that with the 18 month old foster baby. He would yell for me from that gated stairs TEE TEE so I would come up and play with him LOL
