Aloha Friday #1
Gray Cee on Nov-16-2007
I am finally participating in Aloha Friday hosted by my friend Kailani over at An Island Life. The rules are simple. I ask a question, you answer in the comments. A fun and relaxing way to end a hectic week, don’t you think?
So my first question would be…
If you knew you can’t have children (by any reason), would you adopt?
My answer would be (now I regret having to ask a difficult question!), yes. Probably. To be honest, I am not sure but I love children and maybe would entertain the idea of adopting a blood relative.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
That’s a tough one. Before I had kids, I never really wanted any. I loved my life the way it was and never felt that maternal instinct. Now, I can’t imagine my life without kids. I guess knowing what I know now, I would adopt.
Absolutely!
My husband and I have actually talked briefly about adoption, and we decided that if we couldn’t have our own for whatever reason, that we would adopt a baby from El Salvador. Before we were married, my husband lived there for 2 years and did humanitarian aide there after an earthquake, so he felt a connection to the people there.
No, I don’t think I would have. Not that I don’t believe in adoption, because I do. But I just think I would have been happily childless.
Fortunately, it was never a problem for us. BigBob and I just breathed the same air and I ended up pregnant!

I definitely would have adopted if I found I couldn’t have children. Thankfully we don’t have any reproductive problems.
… most probably not.
That is a tough question. Having my four children, I couldn’t imagine my life without them, but if I couldn’t have any, I’m truly not sure, since I am so independent, I would be just happy unmarried with only my dream job. I love children, again I would adopt, but I’m not sure if I would. Sorry for being so vague, I guess it just depends if I found Mr. Right or not. If I did marry my husand and we couldn’t have children,than I would adopt. If I didn’t meet Mr. Right, than no I wouldn’t.
