Thank you so much for all your wise words. It helps to know that there are other people who have experienced similiar feelings. I can certainly relate to feeling depressed about not having a daughter and its nice to know that I am not selfish to feel that way. I went shopping with a friend tonight who has a beautiful 20 month old girl. It gives me a pit in my stomach to look at all the adorable girl clothes and feel that maybe I will never have the chance to buy those things for my own little girl. I hate to feel jeolous of my friends with girls, but I also cannot deny those feelings either. I feel so strongly about adopting and hope that my husband, who is a little reluctant about this, will come around and see the joy she will add to our family. I know my boys would welcome her with open arms. I think I will also feel that she is so extra special because of all that we had to do to bring her into our lives. Sometimes I think God gave me two boys just so that I could go to China and bring home a little girl who needs love as much as we all do. Thanks again for all your wisdom!
