Childless  — 1 week ago

To date, I have been childless. I have PCOS and have never been able to conceive. In my first marriage, I see that as having been a blessing. But I do want to have a child. I would love to have one of my own flesh, but it doesn’t appear that is going to happen, and the risks rise with every birthday I have for unhealthy results.

I am resolved to adopt. I hate to use the example, but I must because I absolutely LOVE my dog. I realize people and dogs are completely different creatures; however, I got a puppy several weeks ago. I have been so excited about bringing her home and making her part of our family. I know that adopting a child would be hundreds of times more moving and exciting than that, so maybe one day I will have a child. If it be God’s will, let it be.

Drug Addicted Babies  — 2 weeks ago

Lately, I have been thinking about if I do adopt a child in the future, I want to consider adopting a marginalized child that most people don’t seek to adopt. I don’t think I could handle adopting a developmentally delayed child, and I love babies so much I’m not sure I would want to adopt an older child. But I read about a care facility for drug addicted infants in this state, and I want to start volunteering there, and I am considering adopting a drug addicted infant sometime in the future…

This is something I have always wanted to do. I have never really desired to have my own kids, but I’ve always wanted to adopt one. I think this will happen when the time is right.

After growing up with an aunt and uncle who constantly housed and often adopted foster kids, I think adopting a child is one of the most noble things a person can do.
