I would keep right on loving it but I would never intentionally buy one that was going to huge. When we adopted our younger son, we were asked at the agency if we would take a retarded child. Not knowing they might have one but having been warned that they would ask that. As you probably knoww, my older biological son is severely retarded. so when they asked that, we told them no and explained about our other son. Then they said, well, what if you got one and then found out he had a problem or ended up disabled from an accident? we saif that is totally different. he would alrfeady be our son and we would roll with the punches. A few weeks later, they gave us this beatuiful,two year old boy and told us he MIGHT have problems. Seems the social workers couldn't agree. Some thought it was a cultural thing. Anyway, by the time he was three he was diagnosed with a learning disabily. He is my heart. AND, I have two beautiful grandchildren I never thought I would have. Long answer to your question but I know you get the point.
