Just want to say that you're not to old. I too am a single mom to 4 and I began my adoption journey at the age of 40. My twins arrived when I was 52. They were 4 and have been a challenge, although I think the worst is over with them. My 13 y/o is now the big challenge. I'd add more to the family, but with my job, I can just meet my childcare costs as is. My twins were fost/adopt through a private agency,so I get no help with anything, altho my agency tried very hard to get assistance for me. The boys were premie twins and neglected by their birthmom. Came to me with lots of anger and very little speech. At least after 2yr of speech therapy we don't get our wires crossed to much. Good luck to you and hang in there. Your child is out there waiting.
