I used to care ...

I love this post from a friend of Joia's who has started a blog about her adventures with adoption. This is so right-on. Prior to infertility, I cared about if we were ready for a family. I cared about whether we were financially stable. The sex of the child. The number of the children. What month they would be born in. That sort of thing.

But infertility showed me what I really cared about. What I really cared about was having a child to love. Period. That's it. A boy. A girl. Old. Young. Healthy. Sick. It doesn't matter.

Infertility taught me that.
