[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - Congratulations! I was adopted as an infant, by a white couple. I am not white. My (adoptive, younger) sibling is not white, either. Kudos to you for talking to DD about adoption from the very beginning. My parents did this and honestly? It's just part of who I am, now. I think this helped me avoid many potential "issues" related to the adoption. Do you celebrate Gotcha Day (day when I "gotcha")? It's the best - and as an adult, deep down it actually means more to me than my birthday, b/c it's the day that really made me "Me." Do you plan to adopt other children in the future?[/quote] I don't plan to adopt more kids. I think man-on-man is the best way to parent (no puns intended). I would not be opposed to marrying someone with kids, or getting married and adopting one more. But while it's just me, it's just her. My daughter is so little that celebrating a gotcha day doesn't mean much to her yet, but I definitely treat us to celebrate her making me a dad and us a family, and me keeping a human being alive.
