I am not saying that they are not true, but I know SEVERAL people that have had wonderful experiences adopting "older" children (from Liberia and Ethiopia), and I know NONE that have a bad experience. I pray the Lord multiplies His blessings on all of your family.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03042424531358445704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581082367733814891.post-79052174871369106542012-09-15T05:57:07.708-04:002012-09-15T05:57:07.708-04:00We have been foster parents since 2006 and have ad...We have been foster parents since 2006 and have adopted one. I share in your heartache from "potential adoptions" that went to family instead. I would love to talk to you sometime, via email, as we are now talking about the possibility of adopting internationally.Nieceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09972741354632236914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581082367733814891.post-87025170913715257982012-09-15T01:11:54.952-04:002012-09-15T01:11:54.952-04:00Wow!

Then, we were REALLY done after 5 babies in 4 years. After 7, he was SURE we were done. Yep. God kept changing dear hubby's mind. Now . . . we "think" that "12 is enough".<br /><br />Blessings,<br /><br />Laurel :)<br />mama of 12 (ages 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 19, 21, 23, 23, 25, 27, 28)Laurelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17253303288242135440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581082367733814891.post-3299168428131148282012-09-15T00:03:12.920-04:002012-09-15T00:03:12.920-04:00Beruktawit -- what a pretty name!

In fact...just had DH look at your header pic, and asked him which 2 of your 3 big girls looked most alike.
