Hi
This is my first post on this site so please bear with me!!
We already have an incredible, gorgeous, dream-come-true 4yr old son who we adopted 3yrs ago.
We've been thinking about adopting again for at least a year but wanted to give the little fella some time to settle before we did.
I am sure we're not the first parents to ponder this difficult question and certainly not the first adoptive parents who wonder "how can we top perfection?" (for surely all our little 'treasures' are our own idea of perfect?!) and wonder how many others of you who've adopted have come to make this huge decision please, either for or against?
Family/friends advice is the usual:
"Why rock the boat?"
"You've been blessed with one, leave it there!"
"What for?!"
"Do what feels right"
I sometimes just wish BM would have another and take the decision out of our hands (as we'd have first refusal!) but after 4yrs I suspect that's not an option!
Thanks for reading this and I look forwards to any replies that may stop our brains going round and round in circles!!
