Chapter 2 Copyright 2010

Where do I begin? There is just so much to tell about a hug story with Ali and Ryan. Of course Ryan never came up with arguments about adopting. He just said it was the wrong time to adopt. And of course Ali went ahead and filled out the paperwork and wrote his name for him sort of like he writes. And of course, being a lawyer, he wouldn't like it when he found out. After all these years, Ali had decided that if she wanted something, she would go after what she wanted. She wanted a child. They could try for years more to have a child, but she wanted a child sooner, and it didn't matter if the child looked different. The child didn't have to have dark eyes and black hair.

After filling out the paperwork, she placed it in a strange place. In a photo album. She decided she would mail it by the following Saturday. She would be out doing errands, and Ryan worked or ran on Saturday mornings. There would be a large chunk taken out of the credit card, but at least a third would come back in tax returns, and maybe things would work out.
