Surrendering to Looking Stupid, Part 2 | On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from October 2008.
On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from October 2008. I wrote about my own surrender to looking stupid a few months ago. Lately, I am realizing that this theory must apply to my children as well. Okay, let me try to circumvent any nasty comments by saying this: I don't think my kids ever look stupid. But . . . sometimes the choices they make are just not my choices. And sometimes their fashion sense just doesn't make any sense. I've mentioned my disdain for character . . .
Wednesday’s Child: Desi
Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family.

A Little Haiti on Balboa | On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from September 2008.
On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from September 2008. Last night we had the pleasure of getting together with several other families adopting from Haiti for a beach bonfire. It's always so fun to hang out with other adoptive parents. For one, it's nice to just get together and chat with people who know all the dirty details about the Haitian adoption process. We mulled over the changes in IBESER, the Gassant firing, the 1974 law, the mess in Parquet, the timing of MOI, how . . .
