I wonder

"Where did you get him?"
"Did his Mom not want him?"
"How much did he cost?"
"Is his Mom happy with her decision?"
"Can she ever come take him away?"



These are just examples of some of the questions that I've been asked about Tater and his adoption. 




While I am really open with his adoption and not afraid to discuss it, there are times when I wonder. 

I wonder why people feel so free to ask questions like that.  I mean, I don't normally go up to a person in the grocery store, strike up a conversation about their child, and then ask how much they owed the hospital after their child was born. 

I wonder if these types of questions will upset Tater when he gets older.  Obviously, he's too young to understand right now, but one day, I can't help but wonder if some of the questions will bring tears to his eyes and make him feel out of place. 

I just pray that he will come to realize just how much he is loved and wanted and when these questions are asked in the future, that they won't bother him at all.
