Single Woman Adopts Two Kids, Then Discovers Similar Marks on Their Bodies — Story of the Day
|A single woman made the decision to start a family by adopting a child. However, after discovering a child with similar looks, she starts to wonder who they really are.
Alexa was a single mother who worked tirelessly to make a better life for herself. She grew up an orphan, getting transferred from one foster home to the other, but she was able to turn things around with her dedication.
She worked a well-paying job as an online customer care representative where she made just enough to cover her rent and feed herself.

Alexa worked there for years before getting promoted to the team manager position, after which she started earning more. The raise gave her more confidence, and she started chewing on the idea of raising kids.
She knew if she saved long enough, she could afford to adopt a child. So five years after she first had the thought, Alexa started the process and she eventually became the legal adoptive mother of a two-year-old boy.
The new mother was very happy with the child, and she named him Paul. Everything she did was done with her child in mind from then on.
When she realized things might get more difficult for them on her limited salary, she registered for a GED and started taking night classes for a course that would let her work as a secretary at a business firm.

While she did that, she kept up her job as a customer care representative and carved out time for her son. Three months after she adopted him, the adoption agency called her with urgent news.
“We happened upon a young girl in need of a foster home and are prepared to send her your way if you’re willing to care for her,” the adoption agent told her when she picked up the phone.
Alexa knew what it was like being in an orphanage hoping to get adopted by friendly people, and the thought of leaving the girl alone to that fate just didn’t sit right with her. Still, she had to think about the cost of raising another kid.
