That is a shame. Its heartbreaking . the Maternal and Paternal Instincts are very strong emotions and hard to deal with when they can't be fulfilled. I have mentioned adoption to her. We'll see what the future brings.

I tend to look at it this way: There are plenty of people in the world and only a finite amount of resources, so a few people like me who are childless help to balance out the others who have multiple kids. There really isn't much for it but for me to take that view. When I was younger, I actually wanted to have multiple kids myself, but life had other ideas for me and my situation was never one I wanted to bring children into. Now I realize it may have been just as well that I didn't try.

At first my niece was heartbroken when she found out she couldn't have them ,but now she is so over the moon excited about adopting this little girl.Adoption here is a very tough process, she almost gave up on that too.

But luckily for her, she never really wanted any. My youngest is a different story. She wants them more than anything.

I could be in over my head with the current topic, so I'll just wish y'all a real good morning from down here in the South Pacific

The weather is strange here . It got up to 12 c today but was really windy. Then On Friday we are suppose to have snow again. In other words the weather is going up and down like a yoyo.
