We are already starting to talk to our 3 year old about having a brother or sister come live with us just so that he knows kind of what is going on. We are currently attending the MAPP classes required for the State of Kansas to adopt through the state, which has meant that we are gone one night a week. Our son is also very into the MINE stage and we are trying to get him to say ours and tell him that he is going to have to share his toys with a brother/sister when he/she comes to live with us. We have requested a child under the age of 3 so that our son always stays the oldest. We know that our wait could be a while, but we thought it is important for our son to know. We have set the crib up in a separate room and sometimes he asks about it and we just tell him that it will be used by his brother/sister.
