March 9, 2010, 11:25 am I recently had a conversation with a good friend, someone I respect and appreciate very much. The long and short of it is that our conversation centered on motherhood--by means of either biology or adoption. While she's always been completely open to adoption and doesn't personally view it as "the...
Home Study ForesightMarch 10, 2010, 7:55 pm A little foresight can save you a lot of money sometimes. I think that concept is pretty true for most things, actually. In many ways, I feel I subscribe to this belief. I scour ads to compare big ticket items (as long as they're on sale, that is); I try to think of realistic value for every dollar... Single Parents--Part 1April 19, 2011, 4:19 pm There was a recent poll taken by the Pew Center for Research recently which dealt with changing trends in American families. The questions asked to over 2,500 Americans had to do with trends in American families and whether the individuals who were polled considered various things to be good, bad,... A Single Parent HouseholdApril 21, 2011, 1:53 pm The other day I wrote a post about single parenthood, a fact of life for many adoptive families. A lot of people (mostly women, but not all) choose to parent on their own, while others, like mine, become single parent homes after the children arrive. The other day I mentioned a recent study by... Happy Father's Day!June 19, 2011, 9:51 am It's Father's Day and across the country dads are opening up presents: ties, barbecue tools, car gadgets, the latest technological mechanism guaranteed to make their life easier. Or perhaps they are going to spend the day on the golf course--after breakfast in bed, no doubt! Whatever it is, I... Celebrating FamilyJuly 6, 2011, 2:58 pm I love the word family and how it has evolved. 50 years ago, if we would have asked a group of people what a family was it would have been such a boring answer. "A dad, a Mom, and 2.5 children." Maybe they would have gotten really crazy and added a pet. I love the fact that we are living in a... A Creative SolutionSeptember 12, 2011, 6:33 am A good friend of mine, Jessica, adopted a child from China about ten years ago. When Jessica's daughter was around four, she exhibited a lot of anxiety whenever Jessica left the house. Jessica would want to pop out for a trip to the grocery store, coffee with her friends, or even a date with her... A Less Than Stellar PerformanceOctober 10, 2011, 12:16 pm I am well aware of the intricacies of sibling rivalry. I grew up in a very large family with eleven siblings of my own. I know that siblings can love each other one minute, hate each other the next and then love again.
My youngest, and my next to youngest, have been engaged in an on going tug of... Telling The TruthOctober 10, 2011, 3:38 pm It was a beautiful day yesterday. A treasure to enjoy before the cold weather sets in. Early fall, the sun was shining, the leaves just starting to turn orange, red and yellow. We ran around as a family; cleaning the garage, cheering at soccer games, friends stopped by, the boys looked for frogs... Mercy Trails RanchNovember 15, 2011, 1:38 pm F-E-A-R-L-E-S-S Letters spelled out in splashes of bright paint across the soft brown sides of the little horse. A four legged canvas for the word that she wanted to stay forefront in her mind as she thought back to her time at the Ranch. Words attached to memories. Memories that she tucked... |
