Hi! My name is Marla. I am a 35 year old therapist, vegetarian, animal lover, artist.... I have been in a wonderful relationship with a fabulous woman and we co-parent her daughter who is getting ready to head off to college. I would like to adopt a child ag 3-9 in the next few years and would love to find a co-parent to share responsibility, as my partner does not want to do the day to day parenting again but play more of an aunt role. We plan to live separately while I raised my child. I think I'll be a better mom if there is another parent in the picture... kind of like a divorce custody situation... I know it's not ideal, but there are lots of kids out there who need homes and I know I can make it work if I find the right person who has similar values and someone I will develop a friendship with first! So, that's, in a nutshell, why I'm here! I can be contacted at marscobin at yahoo. Thanks!
