Yeah…I just did it. Like just…as in I am still out of breath from running back up the stairs. I just informed Scarlett and Tristan about Max. No premable, no planning, and no book. Inspired by Suz’s, I suddenly just had the urge. And I resisted for about 10 minutes. And we are hanging out, sitting on the kitchen floor, in front of the dishwasher, drawing on the MagnaDoodle. And…

Slow day, it seems. Where is everyone? What, you have a real life?? The nerve of you all. Fine, since you are not here, I will entertain myself with the writing about the two new hot crazes that have taken over my house. Tristan, as well as having a cheese “issue” read obsession, has a similar attraction to Sponge Bob. This has made the yellow one been an importnat part…

About the senator mentioned: Senator Landrieu has become a nationally recognized advocate for domestic and international adoption. As the Senate Democratic Co-Chair of the Congressional Coalition on Adoption, she believes Congress has the power to assist state and local efforts to improve foster care and promote adoption. She was a co-sponsor of the Safe and Stable Families Act, which removes barriers to children finding permanent homes and puts in place…

Kudos to my real life friend KT who sent this to me. What a blessing it is to have friends that support one’s obsessions. Ah…so even the NY Times sees a problem with the way things are done!

…are wall to wall Carerra Marble. On Tuesdays, which is Lobby day in New York, they all filled with various groups of people wearing matching buttons and T-shirts, carrying bags of information and itineraries with appointments. School children with assignments travel in packs and make loud noises that may or may not be shushed. Lots of “suits” and women with heels that clang on the marble, gather in groups to…

I stand before you today as a New York woman born and bred. From the South Shores of Long Island, to the depths of New York City, to the green of the Hudson Valley, I am more of a patriot to New York, then America. I am also a mother to four children, one of whom I did not raise. I let him slip away to adoption in the fall…

Enough readin’ material here for a long long time!!! Wow..that’s all I can say.

I have this habit of typing in adoption and then asking Blogger to search all Blogs. It is interesting what comes up sometimes..the various Bloggers who do not have Adoptio Blogs per say, but have something to say about adoption. So in doing this, I found a blog..more “political” one could say…that was written by an adoptee who spoke of having to find his natural mother. Nice story. So I…
