Hey ladies, will you give me your favorite reads? Especially if you have blogs about people who already have adopted, or maybe are working on #2?
Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever! Expecting again after IVF
I read Rebekah's blog (we used the same agency) and the wheredoibegain blog, too. I have a bunch of them on the side bar on my blog if you're interested...
I will add you!! Since it is a private blog new posts won't show up in google reader. This week I have started sending emails to my readers alerting them to new posts.
Not sure what type of adoption you're looking into, but a very popular Ethiopian adoption blog is Amy Bottomly's (here). My absolute favorite is the blog of the Johnson-McCormick family (here); they adopted twin sons from Haiti and they are now 5 years old.. Mom Heather (caucasian) is a sociology professor specializing in racial issues, and she has a lot a LOT of thoughts about her family. Very deep and very beautiful.
