Like I've said before, I had no problem adjusting to an adopted baby. When my parents came home with my little siblings, I was just as excited than if my mom had had them herself. The only difference was that I didn't go to the hospital to meet my new brother and sister like most older sisters would. I met them when my parents came home.
I remember Bob was really excited to meet Sports Dude when he was born. But Sports Dude was a preemie, and Bob was sick. Bob actually had to put on a mask before he could see Sports Dude.
One more thought, the nice thing about adopting, too, was that Mom was really busy after she brought Sports Dude home, but she wasn't sick and nauseous like she would be if she had been pregnant. That's definitely a plus!!! :)

Ditto - we love adjusting to our new babies - bring it on! :) And being paper-pregnant is great on the figure! ;)

What an incredible understanding you have of God's love through His perfect plan of adoption - wish I understood it when I was your age. How blessed you are!
