I wonder...
...how much more work two children are compared to one?
...what it would be like to have another little one in our home?
...if our home is big enough for two little ones?
...how long it will be until we start another adoption (don't get excited - we have to wait until Matthew has been home at least a year!)
...where we will adopt from next?
...if the rumors I hear about South Korea closing to international adoptions in 2011 will turn out to be true?
...if I am crazy to even be thinking about this right now!

No, you're not crazy! We wanted to start the process again pretty much as soon as Joel came home. That feeling did lessen over the months, though! There are days when I feel like I can't handle one, so why do I want two?? But it is exciting to think about!
I don't think you're crazy at all to be thinking about all of this stuff. There are so many logistical aspects to all of it, it's good that you're planning ahead. And I have no doubt that you can handle 2. :-D
Funny... I'm composing a very similar post for today :)
You're not crazy at all - the paperchase is actually surprisingly addictive!
ha! i'm already thinking about #2 and we're not on the wait list yet for #1!!! excited for you and whatever you find out the future holds!
Love that you are thinking about this!!! :)
You are not crazy... no more than anyone else with more than one child. Is it more work? Undoubtably. Do you have room in your house? BUNK BEDS! Will the love add up? Nope, it multiplies!! Is it worth it? ABSOLUTELY!!
not crazy at all. I have learned that if God gives you a heart for adoption, it is hard to put a stop on that desire. Pursue it until God closes the door. Can't wait to hear how it goes.
I think those are all vailid points. Fromw what I ready, you guys are wonderful parents and another child would be lucky to have you as your parents whenever your ready!
I completely understand! I worried the same thing before we had our second daughter, but it does multiply! And it's so fun to see them play together and grow up together. The bickering is another story ;-)
wow, i totally have been thinking about it also. i was just hugging on Gracie this morning and thinking..oh we need another little one running around too. I was thinking the same thoughts! So no your not crazy at all , your a great mommy with a huge heart! God Bless!
I'm totally with you on these thoughts, Rachel. It's obvious you're an AMAZING mama...everything will fall into place nicely when it's supposed to! Can't wait to see what's in store!
I know... all these Haiti kids have me thinking the same thing. I thought we would wait a few years, now I'm feeling the itch.
Hi Rachel...I did email you my address I hope to hear from you really soon!!!!
Tina :-)
not crazy at all! Wondering is good! It's usually the first step! :)
