To Adopt or Not Adopt??

Steve and I met with the Director of LDS Family services yesterday to talk about Adoption. We have been thinking about it the past few months and wanted to just get more information. It was a good meeting and we got a lot of our questions answered, but we still don't know what to do. My thinking is that it can't really hurt, what do we have to lose? Of course I've been praying about it, but I haven't felt strongly about it one way or the other. Am I suppose to wait for an overwhelming feeling to decide??!!

Steve on the other hand said that he strongly felt like we shouldn't do it, yet. So, at least one of us has a strong feeling about it. We will both continue to pray about it and put it in the Lord's hands.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

The other day I was driving in the car and talking to Abbey:

Abbey: I want to be a ballerina when I grow up. What do you want to be Hannah?
Me: I want to be a mom.
Abbey: I want you to be my mom!
Me: But you already have a mom.
Abbey: Yes, but she doesn't know what she wants to be when she grows up yet.

It was one of those precious moments that I love to reflect on. My sister in law is not by any means a bad mother. She does the best that she can. Abbey knows that she is loved by her parents and her favorite aunt!
