[quote=Anonymous]My older sister and I were adopted separately.  My parents adopted her when she was born and the agency called my parents a year later when I was born, hoping to keep biological children together (we'll full sibs).  My parents then had two biological children, my brother a year after me and my youngest sister six years later.  None of us looked a bit like the other and our personalities couldn't have been more different.  I'm thankful each day that my parents chose me to be in their family.  My parents still tell the stories with excitement and smiles of the days my sister and I came into their lives.  Even as the "most spirited" child in my family and the one who gave my parents the most grief as a teenager, my parents loved us all the same.  My brother and I were great friends growing up and my youngest sister and I are best friends today.  Frankly, I don't care if my parents adopted us to help children in need or because they had trouble conceiving, I'm just grateful they did!  My husband and I have two children and I have thought about adopting another because every child deserves a family and to be truly loved.

Good luck to you, OP, you are a wonderful person![/quote]
