children come first
when we were trying to adopt a daughter almost two years ago.. my inlaws..railed..they freaked.. they said wretched snotty comments.. (can't repeat..I'd have to slap myself)
anyway..
my side of the family was very supportive..and I knew from past experience.. (my gran was not the favorite in her family.. so she goes out of her way to make sure each and every child that walks thru her door is treated with love, respect and fairly..)
anyway.. I knew she'd be aces about it..
my inlaws?? I told them.. no worries.. they didn't ever have to see any of us again..
and glad to say spouse agreed.
the adoption fell through.. and we are back on that rollercoaster again.. but the feelings are the same.
except each and every child we have or kiss our..
well.. you get the pix.
my job as a parent is to protect my children, make sure they know they are loved, and give them the armour to deal with it when they aren't..
and personally subjecting them to a bitter old woman.. not on the list.. so ..
take care and good luck
