Sheryl Crow had adoption struggle
Sheryl Crow’s second adoption kept “falling apart”. The 40-year-old singer recently took on the care of six-week-old Levi – a brother for her three-year-old adopted son Wyatt – and admits it has been a lengthy process.
She said: “We’ve been going through this for a year. Getting ready for a baby; it falling apart; getting ready for a baby; the mom changing her mind.
“So we were excited, but conservatively excited.”
The ‘All I Wanna Do’ hitmaker – who is currently single – admits she is amazed at how much more she has to carry around with her for two children rather than just one.
She explained: “One is one and two is 20. I can’t believe how much stuff is needed for two kids! We’re getting ready to go on the road in a couple of days and I don’t think there’s going to be any room on the bus for my stuff.”
However, Sheryl admits caring for Levi has been made easier because Wyatt is so eager to help out with his brother.
She said: “He gives baths, he helps burp him, changes his diaper. It’s really cute.”
The singer is also finding parenting an infant easier the second time around because she learned so much when raising Wyatt.
She added: “I’m easier going. I’m applying all the mistakes I made with Wyatt to being more relaxed with Levi.”
