How would I feel if I have the same thing like Ellen shared in her blog?
I don’t know how my life would be if I have no children of my own. I mean, I can adopt them. But I’m pretty much certain of myself that it will be a different kind of feeling I’ll have inside.
I’m sorry if I write this thing, Ellen. Sorry if this makes you even sadder. But it’s an honest feeling.
You’re right that God loves you. And I’m sure, very sure, that God has made a much bigger, more beautiful plan for you.
It doesn’t make me feel sadder – what is is. I love the concept of adoption and having stepkids has groomed me for opening my heart to a child who is not my flesh. Lately some birthmothers with some very sad stories make me question my choice to adopt – I kind of am not sure where I fit in.
Thank you so much for tagging back to me!
Peace and blessings!
Hello,
I’ll have to check out your blog. It may fit well in my blogroll.
I just wanted to make a comment as an adoptive mom. If you read my blog, you’ll see that I’m struggling with some of the issues of adoption – it is not perfect. But, don’t understimate the heart’s capacity for love. Myself, I have never experienced the biological bond with a child. But I know many couples that have children they conceived and birthed alongside adopted children – and those folks have expressed that love for their adopted children runs as deep as it does for those biologically related to them. Once adopted, they are your own, and you love them just as much.
