Then a year and a half ago I had a second child. Sometimes things just do work out the way they are supposed to. And yes your biological children need you. It's good that you have now taken that pressure off. <br /><br />Congrats on the 2nd dog. We recently got a first one after being without one for over a year. It's good to have balance and to know what your family needs and to adjust accordingly.

I have be...How good to hear from you again, Sarah! I have been wondering about that adoption idea. Perhaps I have mentioned this before (forgive me if I have) - I wanted a third child but my husband was adamantly opposed. He loved his two but he felt a third would really compromise what we could give to the first two -- and it would add more on the plate of two already hard working parents. I did not accept his desire well but I did accept it as I felt that it wouldn't be right to bring a third child into the family unless he was way on board. Fast forward ten years after that decision to limit the family was made: I was so grateful that we had not had the third child. Our kids are less than two years apart and , as little guys, they were fun and a handful but as school age and teen age kids they were an even bigger handful. I am like you - I pride myself on doing an outstanding job at work - no matter how much is dumped on my plate. I hate to think how I would have coped with a third child - and each child does bring his or her own challenges - no matter what.<br />What I know is that life is too short to be so exhausted and to always feel as if you are not doing/giving enough.<br />I applaud your decision (though, you know, I would have been 100% supportive if you had gone the adoption route.<br />LOVE the balance in your house!Graciewildehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00142582724233027386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-201036437468822838.post-17410608821802214672013-01-01T18:00:45.686-06:002013-01-01T18:00:45.686-06:00I have missed you a lot, Sarah.
