I found out some wonderful news this weekend. As some of you know, my husband and I have tried to have a baby of our own, but we are not able to. So we are starting the adoption process. We were approached yesterday by my sister. Her husband's younger brother and his girlfriend have 3 kids. 5,2, and 3 months. They are wanting to have the children adopted. They are unable to care for the children. They do not work, have drug problems, and are 20 years old. The father's mother has said she wants to adopt the old boy (5) since they have him 7 days a week and his parents only see him on holidays and family get togethers. My sister has the little girl, Gabby (2), 7 days a week and takes her back to her parents for visits. In the 24 hours that Gabby is at her parents house, she had not had her diaper changed the entire time she was there. They just had a baby in october. His name is Logan. They had told my sister that if they could find someone close to take Logan, they would let the children be adopted but they would like for the kids to stay kind of close so they can see then occaisionally. So my sister told them about my situation and they asked her to talk to us about it. Yesterday, my sister came over and asked us if we would like to adopt Logan. We are aware of the situation (this is the 2nd generation in this family where there wer children born into terrible situations and other family members have adopted the children). We are also aware that this may not actually happen. This would be in the best interest of the children. The parents do not have the mental capacity to raise the children and they have said they would like something to happen but they don't want to come out and say, please take our children, we are bad parents. I know that has to be very difficult. But now that they have an option, they are hoping it can be taken care of.
All I am asking is for some strength and protection for everyone involved. We will need all of the help we can get. I am happy that the parents are wanting to do something about their situation. If I am meant to be Logan's mommy, let it happen. But if not, let the parents get clean and be able to be parents to their children.

Thank you all for your support. I don't know what I would do with out you guys. But I do have a problem. I can't stop thinking about becoming Logan's mommy. I couldn't sleep last night. Part of it was trying to figure out how we are going to buy all of this baby stuff at once, but the Goddess told me don't worry, it will be taken care of. But I can't stop thinking about it. I am planning things out and I don't even know for sure if we will adopt him. Given the option, yes, I am going to in a heartbeat. I would like to get the ball rolling, but at the same time, I don't want to make it seem like I want to take the kids away. (Even though deep inside I do because of how unfit their parents are) I don't want to hurt anyone more than this is naturally going to. But I don't want those kids to go through more than what they already are. What do you think I should do? I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't function properly. I really just want to go to their house and take little Logan right this moment. But that wouldn't be productive. HELP! I don't know how to stop thinking about it so much.

I'm sending energy your way.
We're going through adoption as well. We've got our home study done and are now in waiting phase -- waiting for the social workers to match us up with the right child.
