I am so proud of my friend Amy. She has three beautiful kids who are getting through middle and high school, and she has just taken in two Guatemalan foster children. Both are girls. Sisters, as a matter of fact. One is only five months old. The other is 19 months. So yeah, babies still. She's already been through some serious kid-raising, and is about to hit some really tough years with her three biological kids and she is now taking in two babies! On top of that, she tells me she and her husband want to adopt them!
So I asked Amy how her three kids feel about the foster children. She told me that not too long ago a friend of hers took in a couple of foster children from Mexico. Ever since then, her kids have been asking her, "Mommy, when are we going to get some Mexican babies?"
I just laughed until my stomach hurt at that one!
Then tonight when Marso got home from work I asked him if we could get some Mexican babies. I figure they'll work twice as hard as my Cajun babies. And maybe they'll teach me Spanish.
