Making Babies
Our process of doing an international adoption in Spain came to a grinding halt last year when I found out I had lost my Spanish residency due to a miscommunication with one of the government agencies.
However, as of two weeks ago, I am a legal resident in Spain once again, which is why tonight April had our adoption folder open on the table trying to figure out what we have to do next.
At one point April slid one of the papers across the table to me, leaned back in her chair, and sighed.
I took a look at the piece of paper. It was a list of certificates we needed in order to officially begin our adoption, which included birth and marriage certificates, a certain kind of medical certificate, proof of insurance for our adopted child, a criminal history record, and a couple others I didn’t recognize.
“You’re right,” April said, “it is more fun making babies the other way.”

I would love to adopt a child…but Dave is not keen…as he says there are so many other people out there who can not have children who are waiting for one.
