The best we can do is enjoy the good parts. Don't live your life for others. Live each moment with as much grace as you can. And if nothing else? Offer to let the haters babysit.

Yes, that's exactly right: very hard work with lots of frustration but also lots of fun and happy moments, especially when you know their rubbish past almost 'predestined' them for a rubbish future and we have the power to change that! It's very rewarding to see the transformation!

There are still some issues there (especially with the eldest adopted at 3) but in the main they're great and well behaved. The early years were incredibly tough though. As mum to one 'natural' daughter, I really, really don't know how they got through those first few years. I have a huge amount of respect to anyone who adopts, it must be the most frustrating, difficult and yet incredible experience. #thelistlinkySarahbelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06895443038758432944noreply@blogger.com
