Paige had a bad dream a few nights ago.
I went into her room to see what she was so upset about. She kept saying, "No, no, please, I don't want to be adopted."
I woke her up and asked what she was dreaming about.
"Oh, mommy", she says "Please don't let someone adopt me. I really like being in our family!"
Clearly I needed to explain exactly what adoption is. She was very relieved to understand that she would always be a part of our family and that I would NEVER, NEVER let her go.
Isn't it funny how children process events? I never would have guessed that my six year old would have been worried about this, or even had such a thought.
Kids. You just never really know what they are thinking.

Hi there,
I follow your blog because Jill sent me over one day!
Wow, I think you're right...you never really know what they're thinking. Probably a good thing it happened so you were able to clear it up for her. Oh, it makes my heart hurt. She's so precious.
