I did have so...I just love you and your passion! <br /><br />I did have someone ask me why I didn't just have another one if I wanted one. aaaah - like Chris said, People are stupid and you can't fix stupid people.

And I was very upset in the beginning when we just had our twins. Felt I always had to defend our position as a family. But you know what? I got a lot more lenient towards oblivious people these days, I don't feel the urge to defend my family towards anybody anymore. We are just an ordinairy family, no less no more than any other family and if people keep wanting to see it in a different light, that is OK to me. They are the ones that are losing out and are ignorant.<br />But I love you for your fierceness and great writing!Mireillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12811610682024643077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953430069221343164.post-33579542844417746422009-07-31T01:05:30.184-04:002009-07-31T01:05:30.184-04:00Oh, gosh!

You just started, your heart and head are in the right place. There is a lot of joy ahead of you but also a lot of pain. People think nothing of asking the cruelest questions at the most innaportune time. Again, we cannot protect our kids but we can empower them.Yolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06068063513978782703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953430069221343164.post-35460812851093064062009-07-30T23:52:28.127-04:002009-07-30T23:52:28.127-04:00OK, I'm coming over so you and I can go to the...OK, I'm coming over so you and I can go to the top of a hill, pull our hair out and SCREAMM!!!!<br /><br />Great line: ". . . she loves them like they're her own..." LIKE they are?? They ARE, stupid! This is when I want to cuss like a trans streetwalker.<br /><br />Here's another one: all adoptive moms were desparate to birth their own baybeez and suffer from depression and/or self-hatred. Ummm. I never really wanted to birth my own. I'd rather fill out forms, thankyouverymuch than get an epiosotomy. I know a bunch of people who adopted BY CHOICE.blackbelthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04682743823175329828noreply@blogger.com
