Adopting after bio child

While most of the time I am pretty clear that this is what I want, there ARE times (middle of the night, mostly) when I have this fear that I will not love an adopted child as much as my bio child. And, if I am brutally honest with myself, I have to admit that race probably does play some part in this. I don't expect to be completely free from doubt; when I was pregnant with my son I had some off-and-on ambivilance and he is the most fabulous, wonderful thing that ever happened to me.I would love to hear from some people in similar situations who are having or have had (or not had) these same doubts.
