The day you dread the most

"What does adopted mean?'

Today Dylan and I were a the store and he is kind clingy, so I ask him if he is ok,we pay for our stuff and go outside, and he says "Mommy do you remember the day I was born?"

I said yes I do it was the greatest day of Mommy's life bubby, why?
"He says was I smiling when I was born?" I said no bubby you were quiet mad and not happy to be bothered when you were born. "Well was kinds of toys did I have then?"
I said bubby you had rattles and baby Mickey stuff but you didnt play with them alot

"Mom how come some kids have more than one mommy?" Well I said, some kids have two mommies because families break up and daddies marry another mommy and some kids have two mommies because they are adopted and some kids have two mommies because two mommies love each other like mommies and daddies do.


Mommy am I adopted?

I said What do you think Dylan, and he says "I remember the day I came out of you,"I said wow you can remember that far back? wow that is a good memory. I asked him would it upset you if you were adopted? "No because I have you for my mommy and I like that. "

"He then asks me, what does adopted mean anyway mommy?"
Well adopted means that little boys and girls are born to one woman who for some reason or another cant or wont take care of there babies and they give them to mommies that cant have babies. "Oh"

I said Dylan kids that are adopted are extra special kids because they are chosen kids. God chose those kids to make mommies out of women who can't have babies of their own

He looks at me all serious and says "I am a special kid, I have a mommy who loves me very much and my aunt Dona loves me very much, so that makes me extra special, right" and I said Dylan you are super special buddy.

"How does a kid become adopted Mommy?"

Well when a mommy decides she cant take care of her baby for some reason, she gives that baby to mommies who can, I said Dylan would it make you mad or bother you if you were adopted? "It wont make me mad cause i have you mommy,but it would make me mad to know I was given away."

I said do you want to know anything else and he look sat me and says" no Mommy but I sure am glad I am special"
