I have 8 children, 4 by birth and 4 by adoption. But here's my take on it . . . you are the MOM. When you are the MOM, you get blamed for everything!!!! I don't care how many children you have. If you have too many (in someone's eyes), you are blamed for "taking on too much."
We all do the best we can and, thank goodness, have each other to support and understand. No one who hasn't adopted can ever understand the emotion that goes along with all of this.
So I'll just send a cyber hug to all of you, because every single day, we're going to need it!!!
