Here’s when you say, Man, how cute are these kids?? The, were even more thirilled that for whatever reason, in every parade in town, they throw candy to parade watchers. I don;t know what that is ll about, but it’s like another Halloween!!

Musings of the Lame was started in 2005 primarily as a simple blog recording the feelings of a birthmother as she struggled to understand how the act of relinquishing her first newborn so to adoption in 1987 continued to be a major force in her life. Built from the knowledge gained in the adoption community, it records the search for her son and the adoption reunion as it happened. Since then, it has grown as an adoption forum encompassing the complexity of the adoption industry, the fight to free her sons adoption records and the need for Adoptee Rights, and a growing community of other birthmothers, adoptive parents and adopted persons who are able to see that so much what we want to believe about adoption is wrong.

  1. Hmmm, she can dance? Where do you suppose she gets that from? I really enjoy your “kid” pictures! Has anyone ever told you that Scarlett looks a lot like her you, her mommy? Are you really Irish? Your kiddies sure look like they could be.

  2. Oh yeah..we are quite Irish..
    I am 1/2 Irish, 3/8 Italina nd the last 1/8 is Spanish…monacrchy we are told.
    Rye…all Irish ..so T and S are like 3/4 Irish.
    Garin’s father is 1/2 fullon Irish and then some German/Dutch mix.
    And Max’s dad was mostly Scottish.

    Which basically translates to I have such a “type” it is insane. I have NEVER gone out with a guy who was not majorly Anglo…Irish, English, etc. I make pasty white kids.

  3. awww, how cute. seriously. yeah, irish here too. 50% on my moms side. 50% polish on the other. Stupid drunks, I am told. Ha ha!

  4. I’m moved – it’s their expressions.
    They are so lovely.

  5. They are so sweet! Just the kind of little cuties, old ladies like me, want to smooch.

    They look like they enjoyed the parade. How nice you live with walking distance to downtown.

  6. I woulda commented on the cuteness without prompting!!! God they are GORGEOUS!!!

  7. Man, how cute are those kids!

    Really adorable. Looks like they had a great time.

  8. Lovely children! I am so jealous that you live somewhere with a St. Pat’s parade. Here it’s only acknowledged in pubs and bars. I am 1/4 Irish, but claim 100%. It’s the best baby.

  9. Yeah, I love where I live. Its a small city..surrounded by cutsie little towns and farms, but it is a city still. We have an uptown, a middown and a downtown. We live..uhem, uptown.
    The parade goes from up to down and ends in a drunken street mess by all the bars and resturants. I avoid that part now, though pre- small ones, it was fun. Though parking sucked big time.
    When Garin was in Catholic school, we use to have to walk the parade..he got three “jeans and sneakers’ days for participating. Scarlett was thrilled to find out that she was “in the parade” when she was a newborn. Pretty much anyone can walk it.
    Lousy day, but the rain had stopped and they did have fun. I had fun just watching them.

  10. OMG. My heart jumped into my throat.. thought is was NYC. Bdaughter and family march in that one every year. You could have been in the SAME one.. OK. Small town. Breathing again and going to try to swallow heart back down to its proper place.

    (Your kids are beautiful!)

  11. Nooooo…not THE parade..NY yes….CITY..noooo.
    Breath, dear one!!

  12. Adorable Irish kiddos!! I love the sweaters too. My 3 YO loved the candy throwing at our 4th of July parade last year (when he was still 2) He still mentions it every time we drive by the intersection where we sat to catch candy last summer. Little things make us happy…
