I have had four kids, but I have always wanted to adopt. In fact before I had my last one (pictured in my ativar) we had just started the process of adoption from Africa. Two months later, SURPRISE! I found out we were pregnant. I have to admit I was a little crushed. I have had very high-risk pregnancies and was so looking forward to our new adventure. Well, Jersey (our new son) is here safely, and even though we said we would be done at four I still feel like we were meant to adopt. I think in a couple years we will be looking into this again.
