Adoption to add to their family
Wilder and her husband, Drue, have always wanted to add to their family through adoption. Social services called them four years ago and said that one of Drue's relatives needed a new home. The couple welcomed the two-year-old child with open arms.
Wilder shared that the child looked like she was in shock maybe because she was not introduced to a lot of people of color. Wilder said that they have talked about race at home a lot because they are an interracial couple.
They started talking about skin color and explained to the child that being in a family has nothing to do with skin color. Wilder told the outlet that the day the child called her "mommy" was the best day ever. She knew that her daughter felt the love she gives, and that is all she ever wanted.
