On the way to school today my daughter asked if we could adopt a baby.
My first thought was oh my, A BABY! I said I’m not sure we are ready to adopt another child at this time. (Three of my five children are adopted, she’s one of them.) I think she heard me talking to my husband last night, as I asked him if Santa would bring me a little yorkie baby. My daughter said no not a real baby, a yorkie baby. Hmmmmmmmm, well we have to see about that, I said and off to school she went.
Now she has me sitting here wondering if it’s a good idea. She is a special needs child, and I have never told her she couldn’t have something. I think its sweet she wants to adopt one, because then they would have something in common. I’m just not sure what age to get, or even where to look for a healthy one. We already have a year old Rottie, four year old Chihuahua & Princess who is going to be three in March. We have a big home with a very large yard, so I know we have lots of room, and more than enough love. Do you think this would be a good idea? And if you do, What age should I look for?
Thanks for your advice!
