Well Scotland.com, I have been married for a long time. Very happily I might add. Next May it will be 21 years of marriage and 23 years of knowing each other. I am 38 years old and have known my husband since I was 16. He asked me out when I was 17 and we married when I was 18. It has been such a great married life. It really has. And I look forward to another 20 years and more. In fact, my husband told me yesterday when we exercised the dog in the snow that he wants us to die together of old age asleep close together. Lol. He is such a dear and beautiful soul.
Well, we want to adopt a child or children. And we have been waiting for over a year and a half. But, the waiting is tough. But we are hopeful. It still scares me a bit. The sheer responsibility of children and raising them responsibly is very scary. But a great feeling too. My husband was an adopted child and I think would make an ideal parent. But, I would like to know from the more experienced parents out there, which things you have done to help you with your kids that you see have worked really well and can share. My goal is to raise an inquisitive child full of creativity and responsbility and caring for others and to be true to his or her own self always while being a person of good manners and excellent values. What do you think works with kids? I already know our child is going to speak more than one language. And will travel some. But what works for kids?
