Today I have two guest bloggers with me—my nieces, Abby and Caroline!
Abby would like to share that, initially, she was against the idea of my adopting, because she thought it would mean she wouldn’t be able to spend as much time with me as before. But now, she thinks that adoption is cool because it will mean she gets to have a new friend.
Caroline has been excited about it the whole time we’ve been talking about it. In fact, when I first mentioned the plight of orphans in the world to the girls, Caroline’s response was “Why don’t you adopt right now?” And Caroline, like Abby, thinks it would be fun to have a new friend.
[Will just wants to buy a trampoline. Correction: a giant trampoline.]
Caroline thinks that a new cousin would be AWESOME (she requested capital letters!). Caroline also thinks foster care would be cool to learn about.
Abby has always thought foster care would be cool “because it means that kids get to have a temporary home, and they would get to spend time with Carly and eat her special macaroni and cheese. And they would get to go to my grandparents’ house and eat their yummy zucchini bread.”
“Yum!” says Caroline. “Woohoo, foster children!” says Caroline.
Will, yelling, “I want to have a parent named Carly!!!!”
And that’s a wrap, folks. More insight from the next generation tomorrow.
