when my son was just 2 (i mean the day after he turned 2). his 9 month old bio half sister came to live with us as a foster to adopt placement. i was not ready to parent 2 children that were 15 months apart. after the first week i asked that she be moved to another foster/adopt home. well, they took so long to find a new home, i had time to adjust and we all got on a schedule and things worked out. in the end, her bmom turned things around and was able to parent her (she returned home after 11 months of living with us). but, it taught me i could handle 2. of course it is harder, but it was also nice when the 2 could play together and i did not have to do so much "entertaining". i am going to start accepting babies again at the end of the summer. my son will be almost 3.5 years old and much better prepared for an addition. good luch with adoptin #2
