after Yolanda and John spent a whole month in Hawaii they both were physically ready to have kids and they didn't know first thing about parenting so they asked many people around the neighborhood if they knew what it was like to be a parent to a child so they asked around and surprisingly they did get very good advice from a friend that had five children already and she was still in the area where they lived next door to her and asked her if she knew what it was like to be a parent herself her friend that lives in this area her friend's name was Isabel she was new to the area so she started doing hot yoga and other things that involved her friends and kids, so she wasn't shy about getting asked questions by her friends about parenting. so Yolanda was okay with the fact her friend Isabel was good friend to talk to about this sort of thing with her, Yolanda trusted her friend for many years for anything or just wanted to know more about stuff that she wasn't sure of it yet.
when it finally came time to ask Isabel about having kids she finally came to a conclusion that it was hard at times to have time for yourself when you have kids of your own that needs a lot of attention and she was truly honest with her friend Yolanda when Yolanda came over to her house that night to discuss how it felt when she had kids and how she emotionally felt when it too much at times with the kids.
~Yolanda talks about children with Isabel~
'it was so hard to raise them all up in a right way too and they were so bad at times so I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I first got pregnant with all 5 of them they just had so many different personalities that I couldn't handle even one of them it was all too much for me to handle because they wouldn't listen to what my husband and I said or told them to do their chores but instead they chose to misbehave at times just so it wasn't just a walk in the park with these kids that I brought into the world it was so much more than fun in my life because I was a parent to being with' said Isabel as she sat down on the couch while explained how the whole process worked for being a parent, when Isabel was finally finished with rest of her story she finally calmed her nerves with some tea and started to ask Yolanda some questions if she wanted to have kid's of her own,
'I physically feel like it's a lot to have kids what would happen if I get a miscarriage even if I don't have a problem with my ovaries if I can't find a solution to my problem of getting pregnant'  said Yolanda while sitting on the couch next to her.
'you can always adopt a child' said Isabel with a smile while getting another cup of tea from the kitchen.
'okay that sounds about right I'll try the first solution first but if that doesn't work I'll try the second one and go from there so far'
'ohh wow look at the time' said Yolanda while looking at her watch 'I better get going it was nice talking with you today Isabel' as soon Yolanda hurried out the door it was perfectly clear that she had a choice to make before her end of her life ends so she went home instantly to talk with John about the choices that she thought of when she got home from being at her friends house that night,

'okay so what did Isabel say when you discussed it with her' said John sitting on the chair with a cup of coffee in hand.
she said 'I could always adopt a child if we can't seem to get pregnant for any reason or she thinks being a parent is so much work and that I should think this one through before I make that decision'
so John leaned in to stretch before speaking with his wife about this one it definitely felt different when his wife Yolanda was talking about children.
when Yolanda was finally finished speaking she wanted his input about having kids situation or not have kids at all,
'I think we should definitely try to get pregnant first if that fails we could try adopting a child instead if we can't seem to get pregnant for any reason that's my solution to your question' John replied while finishing his cup of coffee,
'okay I think we should definitely do the first choice is to get pregnant and then we'll go from there if it works out for us that is' said Yolanda,
so they both decided it was time to try to make choices for their future if they wanted to have kids or not it depends on how it goes with Yolanda and John so they both still have time to decide if they want kids or not it's definitely up to them at this point in time.
