We’ve been wanting to adopt for years. I was an older mom and now I am 52 with a 6 year old who keeps asking for a sibling. She cries about it. I tell her mama can’t have any more children. It breaks my heart. I had so many complications giving birth to her that I almost didn’t make it. My husband is younger than me and the absolute best father to her. I would’ve loved to have given him more children. It is sad that women only have so many years to bear children.
We are both still young at heart and want to adopt but have no money to do so. Adoption is so expensive and it’s hard because we want to provide a child with a sibling and parents that love them. We love to play together, do things as a family, spend time with my family and my husbands family. We do lots of crafts, go to the parks, do hikes together, bake together and watch movies and play board games.
I always wanted four kids, but that wasn't in the cards for me. My daughter doesn't like being an only child and she has so much love to give a younger sibling.
Please help us reach our goal. This would be the only way we could ever bring a blessing into our home. I'm so afraid if I go the foster care route, my daughter would grow attached and then the kid(s) would be taken from us. I could not break her hear or ours and go through that.
