Do I have to be a mommy to "opt out"?

I'm crazy in love with my two sisters' five kids. I feel like helping to raise them would give my life meaning.

    Life is funny...

    I wish you everything that is fulfilling -- whether that is traveling to the two remaining continents, and/or life as a loved and loving aunt. It's good to have a plan, but you never know what life has in store. I married at 44 and my husband and I just this evening completed our first home-study meeting as the next step in the adoption process.

    I've traveled, started businesses... I figured marriage and family were not in the cards for me, but you just never know.

    Again, I wish you everything that is fulfilling.
