Well yes and no! I've always "imagined" myself as a mother to twins, but planned on having (or later adopting) my children one at a time.
We didn't think twice about putting twins or multiples as one of the special needs we were comfortable with our ability to handle...when we got the e-mail about the twins - I thought about it for about 5 minutes, then called all my friends who have twins (o.k. at that time only 3 people) and said - What do you really think - should we do this? The local friend said that she absolutely would, there are challenges to being a twin parent, but there are also so many joys. And that if we decided to this, to let her know and she'd give me a "crash course" in twin survival!
We plan on adopting again in another year or two, and there are days when I'd would happily adopt twins again, but there are also days when I really look forward to having only 1 baby at a time.....
Anyway -WithOpenArms - good luck - God will lead you and your child(ren's) birthmother together when the time is right!
Happy Easter!
