Description
Adopting a baby from should be a fairy tale ending to a story of loss. But life offers no guarantees, no matter how a family is formed. Children come with needs, while middle age presents its own set of challenges. The goals from our thirties often seem hollow, unattainable or irrelevant. Illness can make its sudden devastating appearance.
Big Sister, the sequel to Little Sister, is the story of such a family, twice blessed by adoption.
Mark and Rena, the American couple who adopted the baby Mooi Mooi (now called Jennie) from Little Sister, live in . While adopting Jennie satisfied Renas yearning for a child; adopting Lily, their second daughter, blew apart a marriage already edging toward divorce.
It isnt Lilys faultthough Mark would like to blame her, if only to get Rena angry. Yet even before Lilys arrival, hed begun questioning his life choices, his health was declining, hed backed away from family obligations. Then at fifty, he learns he was adopted.
Always the strong one, Renas faith in marriage is shattered when Mark leaves, apparently for a younger woman. She appears resolute, however, amidst Lilys head injury, her brother, Jims unexpected arrival; and her best friend, Lindas problems with her son, Zach. Yet she cries each night, lonely and afraid, desperately wanting her husband.
Jennie's a daddys girl, figuring she would have favored her birthfather as well. Ashamed of her role in Lilys injury, she strives to be a better sister. Her strength is evident as she helps an unwed mother make a difficult, life-altering choice.
