(m) I was say the are time I feel like he is not
support of
Jawharah( immm)
things I want to do but he know he can not he
never miss
any big deal about thing such as you know about
adoptions
(mm)but longest is just conversation about me and
him and
doing thing is fun he is good our relationship is
good and he
good as well that I can see because he does not
talk who feel
live so I never know really now thing bather him
what I can do
or things (mm)but like even before you know we
marriage we
deadest before some years before we marriage
like say he
just had divorce from first wife the he has child
with and you
know in the beginning we really thing about
children in this
time what ever I was purpose try to finish school I
was in
college you know my husband older than me few
years and
like say try to finish college so I did not thinks for

7. kids in the
time because I have some another thing I want to do
like (m)
and just time spent with my husband because I know
the
children our the big responsibility but when did
decided to stat
you know try have kids so whatever this on we can
found it I
could not have children like I say very very very hard
break that
I could not have children of my own and I thing kind
of cost to
me become very very withdrew and you know almost
I feel
depression the I could not have children you know
because I
don’t know My husband get point were he did not
married
any more because I could not have kids and I does
not think
he does not Want have kids but since I can give
birth any
children but his wife know have any more any kids is
all
that can get from him so I feel like since start talk
about this
whole adoption think is kind of punch street
relationship
because he does not getting and just I feeling to try to
getting
you know or try to understand where I came from .

you know
marriage him when he ready have child you
know so the big
sorceries for me I had deal another side of him
