Adoption

*dr.loretta*

Whenever I see your screen name I always wonder if you have your PhD or where the screen name came from?  Thought I'd solve the mystery by asking. :-)

  • Why yes, yes I do. But you'd be amazed at the # of Bumpies who thought I had an MD in ob/gyn, and PM'd me with "am I pregnant?" questions.

    And my name isn't Loretta. That's my "bar name" ;)
