the toughest job you will ever love

lol gabby.... really nice way to say it!

thanks I do love being a mom

conditions for raising a baby are very important! and it's sooo hard nowadays to find them .. you need to be a milionaire to afford this
I know this because i look at the couple we stay with ... theyare inteir 30's already and.. they have no place of their own, and can barely manage to live themselves... how about an extra mouth to feed ??

I agree a baby needs certain things for sure but I don't think you have to be rich. When we had our kids we were just making ends meet with little left over

no, you dont have to be rich, but you have to have enough money to get your baby what he needs... if you dont have the money, you better dont have the baby...

You are absolutely right on that one LaLa. Every child deserves a fair chance

but unfortunately, many people dont think about that before having the baby... thats why there are so many children given away for adoption or just left on the streets (at least here in romania). that is just awfull...

Yesterday my bf told me a story that really shocked me... He knows a guy who is adopted. he said that almost 20 years ago, a woman wanted to leave to work and, when she opened the door, she saw a baby laid down in front of the door, crying. she took him in and raised him. it was that guy i was talking about. he is currently looking for his real parents to ask them why they did it. personaly i would tell them i will never forgive them for leaving me...

My sister adpoted 2 children from the Ukraine.

LaLa that is a sad story. How much worse if that wonderful lady didn't take him in. She's the Mom!!!

indeed she is the mom! but... its the dream of an adopted child to meet his/her natural parents. i know i would want to if i were in this situation...
