“As we say to the children daily, we may not always have enough arms/hands/laps… but there is always enough love and that is what counts.”
“She may be disabled and she may be adopted, but that is all just one part of who she is. She is my family and we are hers.”
“Adopting siblings can be so worthwhile. They’ve always got each other… If you know in your heart that you want children, go for it. It’s not easy, but parenting isn’t!”
