Since we have started the adoption process, we occasionally ask Jude random questions on her thoughts of having a sibling. We began when she was around 2 1/2 years old.
First question is always, would you like to be a big sister?
Jude- Yes!!
Would you like a little brother or sister?
Jude- A SISTER! So we will be the same! (Hence this answer must come from her obsession of Tinker Bell and The Secret of the Wings we watch at least once a week.)
Yes, little one in God's eyes we are all the same.
I loved the other day she walked up to me and said, "I love Thailand...with the elephants and dragons."
Not sure where that came from, other than I caught her looking at one of our Thailand culture and travel books we have recently purchased.
This past Sunday she opened up to the idea of accepting a brother, She said, yes I could have a brother like (cousin) Brady. lol
So in our home study we were approved to adopt twins!!! I couldn't be more delighted. Steve on the other hand "twins are not that common" I believe that is entirely up to God. If we were to naturally become pregnant again, there might be a slim chance of twins...... I do not want to miss any opportunity we might have for a referral. I look at adoption just as I would with a biological child/children. God has already chosen what is in store for us. We are just waiting on HIS timing.
We are open to either a boy or girl whatever God has chosen for us. I do love the idea of Jude having a sister, I think this just comes from growing up with a sister and how close we are. Yet a brother is not such a bad thing either. Jude and her sibling could be anywhere from 2 1/2 to 4 years age difference.
So keep us in your prayers. We are still waiting on Steve's passport for our dossier.....and then on to approval.
