I don't know about you, but I've read enough
letter starting out with, "I know what a difficult
decision this must be..."
I don't know how difficult it is. I can't even imagine it.
Maybe it isn't difficult at all. I don't know.
I do know that whoever we adopt is going to have
some great parents.
Because we are older, I'm 38 and my wife is 40, we have
the patience and abilities beyond younger parents.
We've seen our friends' parenting techniques and learned
from them. We're financially established and able to
provide well for a child. And we've been together long enough
(8 years) to nurture our relationship, and we're
better together now than we've ever been.
