A friend of mine, who is one of the best people in the world, is about to adopt a baby. I'm so happy for her I could cry. Yeah, that's why I'm crying. Let's go with that.

(But I am happy for her, I really am.)

I, on the other hand, both long and want one, although realistically now is not the time. I'm barely solvent enough to support myself, financially I can't handle it.

Oh, if we're just talking about desire, I want one and always have. But for me, "really want" has to involve feeling ready and able to do it. Does that make sense?

And that is why you would make a good mom. Because there is more to being a parent that the biological ability.

Most definitely!

Yes! Perfect sense, in fact, because that's how I feel too. :)
