Let it Go
Okay, you hear about all the questions people ask you when you do this. This week, it just kind of pushed me over the edge. "Maybe you'll get pregnant, have you thought about in-vitro, are you worried about raising a black child and the best "I wish I could find you a baby." So I won't go far with this post as it will just put me in a angry or disappointed space. A part of me wishes we wouldn't have shared as much information as we have with our friends and family, but its done. And I know folks mean well. Just another hurdle in the adoption journey - like the books tell you and you somehow think you will be immune. Onward.

Don't let others bring you down. It's easier to say that than do it I know - but you and Pat have made a decision that is best for your family. No one else can make that decision for you! We're here for you and love you! Sending lots of hugs and patience. We're praying for you and know that your will be led to "your" child and that you will know when your family is perfect.
sometimes it is hard to believe the comments and questions we hear, but people are just curious and they do mean well. sometimes they just forget to think before they speak and it comes out wrong. Do not take it personally. You just have to learn to shrug it off.
Fern and I were at the pool the other day - and a young girl said Fern looked just like me. I just laughed and said thanks! You don't always have to explain yourself...it is your story and you can decide what parts of your story you want to share!
ps. stop reading all the bad stuff on the internet and just relax -enjoy your last few months before the beautiful chaos starts!
