Sometimes: a poem

Sometimes………….

all I can think about

is adopting

another child

or two

soon.

Sometimes

I sit and I think

maybe

should start all the paperwork again in the next

couple of months?

Renew the homestudy?

Use forms

before they expire?

Fundraise for another adoption?

And I start thinking….

my hands are so full.

I can’t possibly have another child

right NOW

or even two more additional when

there are so so so many things going on

in my life.

Then

I think about how great it was

to hold Miss. S in my arms for the

first time

and how many children are still without

a mom

or a dad

or children just like Miss. S living on

one meal a day

or less

and I say to myself

"What are you waiting for?"
