Hello i'm new

Hello there all. I am stumbled across this web site and investigated it ... This is my intro.... My husband and i have done a Trans cultural adoption here In South Africa. We live here and now wanting to find a sibling for our darling Son. We are hoping for a girl this time around.
I was wanting to find a place where i can share my story and of course find support..
I am very wary of giving information on our Adopted child and have used a fake name. Forgive me in doing this. I just don't want this to come back and slap me in the face.

My son has brought us such joy and happiness. I never thought i could have such love for another human being as i do for him. Its been one hell of a journey to start our family what with infertility .. But its all been worth it.

Anyways i look forward in getting to know you all.

Darc x

Hi there! Welcome to the forums! We also have two adopted children from South Africa...I'd love to hear more about your experience and what it is like to live in RSA as a mutli-racial family.

The Africa forum is pretty quite, but you can also check the transracil adoption forums for more posts and info...

What area of RSA are you in?

Karyn
