Adoption

I saw this article about this mother and daughter running an adoption scam over at Cecily's blog. This article really upset me, especially when I read the caption under the judge's picture saying he was reading an emotional letter written by one of the couples who were victims of these two women. I can only imagine what these couples are going through. To have your hopes up, and then to have them shattered like that. How can people be so cold? I never can understand why God allows such people to have children, but not those who would be wonderful parents and who treat people the way they would want to be treated.

I know what it feels like to want a child so badly that it hurts - that your body aches for a child. Having something like this happen has got to be devastating. Much like having your hopes up that an IUI will work or the Clomid will work, I suppose. I hope I don't have to go through the adoption process. I hope that God will bless my husband and I with our own child and we don't have to go through the adoption process - hearing stories like this scares me.
