For my fortieth birthday I invited my three sisters to my home, not for a celebration but to talk. In the living room of our apartment, I told them that I had wanted so much to be a mother by this point in my life, that my husband and I were going to keep trying for one more year, and that we were also thinking about adopting a girl from China. I wanted to know what they thought of that. My sisters listened and promised their support. Amy leaned toward me with a tender smile and said, “If you have a baby, I will help you.”
Annette, this is so beautifully written. I think every parent, at least once, has wondered if they loved enough or in the "right" way. I can't wait to read your next blog. I will be sharing this far and wide! Thanks for sharing with me.

Thank you so much, Nancy, especially for sharing with others!
