Cudos to you. May you know strength to sustain you in challenging times.
Not sure what happened here. I was the one who left the Cudos message. Somehow it left me out and looked like you posted it.

Oh, I think I know what happened. Many apologies if my post was out of line.
See my other post, it looks like it was me and not you. Not sure what happened.
As far as I am concerned, there was nothing out of line with your post.

It takes courage to adopt. I know a woman who adopted two, a boy and a girl. The girl grew up, married and has two boys. She treats her step mother like her blood mother (there is another term for this but it escapes me just now). With the boy they had a lot of trouble.
