Ricky Martin, the gay Puerto Rican singer, who already has a twins from a surrogate mother, has hinted on his plans to adopt another child. The twins, Mateo and Valentino, are two years old, but Ricky Martin feels that he should adopt another child to get them a sibling.

“Adoption is beautiful — give it a try. Even though I started with surrogacy, adoption is probably my next step," he said. Ricky Martin's birthday is on the 24th, on the eve of Christmas and ask him what he wants from Santa, all he says is good health of the children.

Ricky Martin this time wants to adopt a baby girl to complete the family. At present this will be the first Christmas for his twin sons. He says he wants to teach his sons the holiday tradition. “Now it"s not about me, it"s about my children. The holidays are for them. I guess I"ll get up early in the morning — they"re only two years old so I"m teaching them what the holidays are all about. This is really their first Christmas so let"s wait and see," says Ricky Martin.

With his second adoption, Ricky Martin will have a complete family and he says that his children are a great source of inspiration for him.
