Adopting A Child

Last year, a friend who married late and was childless, suddenly decided to adopt a girl. It came as a surprise for all of us and had us wondering if she could really do it  but she took to motherhood without qualms. Gone were the late night parties, sudden travel itchiness and impulsive shopping for my friend but she was really satisfied with her decision. She relishes the idea that her time, energy and even money now are going somewhere more realistic like doing the groceries to buy milk and diapers for the baby, going to the doctor for her regular check-up, planning for the college education and even getting a child life insurance.

Years ago, my friend suddenly got sick. Single at that time and with almost no savings, she only survived her almost month-long hospitalization and subsequent recovery period through her parents’ and siblings’ financial assistance. It was really a hard lesson to learn for her that she promised herself to be better prepared for medical emergencies in the future. With a child of her own now, she has been keeping her promise. She has been checking out more websites for tips to be a better mother as well as for some tips to insure the future of her family from MedicareSupplementalInsurance.com .

Adopting a child it seems to me made her a better person. While she cannot stop talking about her baby’s latest mishaps and funny adventures, she is now starting to talk about her plans for her baby and her family’s future. Planning was something she rarely did when she was single and also, when before the baby came. Nowadays, she is now talking about getting life insurance quotes, saving for the future, and disciplining herself in not doing her impulsive shopping anymore or at least, controlling that habit.  She is now just radiating so much joy and hope that I wondered about the idea of adopting a child of my own.

Of course, there are a lot of things to consider for people who is considering to adopt a child. However, by planning and saving throughout the year, you'll have the biggest pay-off, whether you are preparing to adopt, or you are simply trying to secure your future.
