Adoption......

The winds are blowing in that direction.

It has been for some time.

Will I ever be a mom?

Will my husband be a dad?

What will be that be like?

Can a baby not born to me be mine?

So much unknown.

I want it.

I fear it.

So many thoughts.

We're tired of living without.

I want a child, someone

to nurture,

to teach, to enjoy, to love,

to guide, to be proud of.

Is this me?

Can I handle it?

Of course I can.

Of course we can.

I'm walking to you, child...where are you?

Please show me the way.....
