\u201cLa forma en que surgi\u00f3 nuestra familia est\u00e1 fuera de lo que alguna vez pens\u00e9 o imagin\u00e9 para m\u00ed. La adopci\u00f3n nunca fue algo en lo que hab\u00eda pensado mucho, especialmente cuando se trataba de hacer crecer mi propia familia. Pero, cuando reflexiono, estoy muy agradecido de que mi familia se haya construido de esta manera. Ha sido construido de manera perfecta y hermosa, mejor de lo que jam\u00e1s hubiera anticipado o so\u00f1ado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La adopci\u00f3n lleg\u00f3 a mi vida y a la de mi esposo despu\u00e9s de luchar contra la infertilidad durante varios a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s del nacimiento de nuestro hijo. Esto nos llev\u00f3 a adoptar a una ni\u00f1a et\u00edope de 3 a\u00f1os, nuestra hija Elsa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despu\u00e9s de ver la inmensa necesidad de tantos ni\u00f1os que no ten\u00edan familia, supimos que alg\u00fan d\u00eda volver\u00edamos a adoptar. Despu\u00e9s de unos a\u00f1os, trajimos a nuestro hijo, Asher, a casa desde Sud\u00e1frica. Ten\u00eda 2,5 a\u00f1os. \u00a1Poco despu\u00e9s supimos que est\u00e1bamos embarazadas! Nuestros ni\u00f1os tienen ahora 10, 8, 4 y 1 a\u00f1o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los cuatro hijos de Kerri y Nathan<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Como padre de dos hijos biol\u00f3gicos y dos hijos adoptados internacionalmente, debo decir que lo siento completamente normal. A menudo olvido que nuestra unidad familiar puede ser muy diferente a la de quienes nos rodean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adoptar a nuestros hijos me ha tra\u00eddo exactamente los mismos sentimientos que tener a mis hijos biol\u00f3gicos. Sentimientos de inmenso amor, alegr\u00eda, protecci\u00f3n, esperanza para su futuro y preocupaci\u00f3n (por supuesto) sobre si estoy haciendo bien esto de ser padre. Ser padre es una monta\u00f1a rusa, con tantas emociones, altibajos. Cualquier ni\u00f1o, sin importar su origen, trae las mismas preocupaciones como padre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Una cosa que me ha ense\u00f1ado ser madre adoptiva es que necesito estar bien versada en la paternidad informada sobre el trauma. No importa cu\u00e1l sea la circunstancia, la necesidad especial o la edad que tenga el ni\u00f1o cuando es adoptado, todos han experimentado un gran trauma al ser separados de su familia de origen. Tener hijos adoptados significa disciplinar de manera diferente. Criar a dos ni\u00f1os que han tenido comienzos muy dif\u00edciles no es f\u00e1cil, de ninguna manera. Siento que educarme e implementar un enfoque diferente para disciplinar y ser padre es algo con lo que todo padre adoptivo debe comprometerse. Adem\u00e1s, creo que aprender estas incre\u00edbles t\u00e9cnicas de crianza me ha ayudado a ser una mejor madre para todos mis hijos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tener un hijo biol\u00f3gico despu\u00e9s de adoptarlo ha generado grandes conversaciones con mis hijos sobre las primeras familias, lo que llamamos \u201cmam\u00e1s y pap\u00e1s panza\u201d y lo que significa tener un padre. Ha sido una experiencia incre\u00edble caminar junto a mis hijos mientras cada uno procesa su propia historia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tener dos hijos africanos aporta una perspectiva completamente nueva a nuestra familia. Toda mi visi\u00f3n del mundo ha cambiado gracias a conocer a mis hijos adoptivos. El curso de mi vida, el curso de la vida de mi esposo, la vida de nuestros hijos biol\u00f3gicos y la vida de nuestra familia extendida se han abierto a un nuevo punto de vista a trav\u00e9s de nuestros hijos adoptivos. Todos tenemos la suerte de conocer a Elsa y Asher y hemos cambiado para mejor gracias a ellos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gracias a Elsa y Asher, mi vida es rica y plena en formas que nunca hubiera experimentado. Mi familia es et\u00edope y sudafricana. He ganado dos culturas hermosas y diversas. Mi familia incluye su herencia en cada una de nuestras vidas a trav\u00e9s de la m\u00fasica, la comida y, lo m\u00e1s sorprendente, a trav\u00e9s de la incre\u00edble comunidad africana que hemos conocido aqu\u00ed, que ahora son como una familia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hemos viajado a \u00c1frica varias veces desde que iniciamos el proceso de adopci\u00f3n, e incluso pasamos un mes juntos como familia en Sud\u00e1frica. Los recuerdos que creamos all\u00ed ser\u00e1n apreciados para siempre y los ni\u00f1os hablan a menudo de nuestras experiencias all\u00ed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ser madre de hijos biol\u00f3gicos y adoptivos es una experiencia incre\u00edble que desear\u00eda que m\u00e1s personas consideraran. Para m\u00ed ha formado la familia m\u00e1s hermosa que jam\u00e1s podr\u00eda imaginar\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
