Ahhh well I guess I may see things a bit differently. I have 2 of *my own* and adopted a little girl, and I use the phrase that "I couldnt love her more if she had come from me". I dont think she meant anything by it either. I think that most people on here read WAY too much into what people say and do when it comes to adoption. JMO
