When we adopted our daughter as a newborn..We had to stay in CA for 3 weeks. I would get people all the time that said, Wow, you lost all your weight. ..I would just say thank you. It did feel weird to say that but I was a new mom and really didn't know what else to say..
Now then people look at us (we are both Caucasian and our daughter is Multiracial) we do get some bad looks. One lady a few months ago looked at me and then my daughter and was shaking her head..She was old and I guess she thought I was married to a mixed race man, which is fine with me. I looked at her and said, what are you looking at and then kissed my daughter..There are so many rude people out there. I am so proud to be a mom to my daughter..
I have had people asked why we adopted and not tried on our own!!! I say, Geez!!! you try 2 IVF's and see how much you love it!! They tell me I just need to relax!!!! Ya right!!! Relax!!
