Ange wants another daughter


Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie and partner Brad Pitt are hoping to expand their family yet again, this time by adopting a child from the country of Burma. The pair have enlisted the assistance of one of Burma’s leading monks to plan a trip to a local orphanage.According to a source close to Angelina, she has become “increasingly despondent” about the progress she’s making in helping Third World countries, and is desperate to help the troubled nations. As such, she feels that the Republic of Myanmar, or Burma, is the perfect place to adopt her next child — preferably a girl.Angelina Jolie and her partner Brad Pitt already have four children in their “rainbow” family. Their oldest son, Maddox, 6, was adopted from Cambodia five years ago prior to her relationship with Pitt.Two years ago the pair adopted a baby girl, Zahara, from Ethiopia, and earlier this year they adopted Pax Thien, 3, from Vietnam. They also have one natural child, Shiloh, which Angelina gave birth to last year.A source tells Daily Mail, “Angelina feels she is barely making a dent in the suffering she sees throughout the Third World as she travels incognito to different countries as a United Nations representative.“She wants to step up her action in what she calls Red Alert areas, the most seriously troubled, war-torn areas in the world.“She’s in talks to go into Burma and help with students and AIDS victims who are suffering terribly.”Pitt’s bedtime stories Brad Pitt’s most cherished moments are putting his children to bed at night.The Fight Club star enjoys spending the evening with his children and reading each of them a bed time story.He says: “It is a really special time, a time I value and it’s that one-on-one time where you really ask the questions and I want to make sure they have that.”And the bedtime ritual is one that stems from the 43-year-old’s childhood.He adds: “The three of us siblings, we'd jump in our beds, separate rooms, and we’d all be yelling for (mom), because she’d take turns coming from room to room, right? And we’d just talk for hours sometimes. Just talk.”
