Utterly Jaded

Adoption.My wife has her heart set on it and my heart is set on us having our own kids.We had a minor altercation about this.It's not that I don't want to adopt, which I don't, but I do want to raise those of my own blood.I simply can't let it end with Kiersten.I just can't.
I told the stories that were told to me of my father's mother, Elna Thorne-Gooding.
There wasn't really a lot to tell.She was of Scotch-Irish descent, she didn't know who her father was, she never really said a lot.She was from Maryland, she married my grandfather while still very young.She lived with her mother's family and had her mother's family name.She had an aunt Elvis and her uncles were Alfred and George.That was it.
