Wednesday’s Child, 15-year-old Raymond wants a chance to be someone’s son
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. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system. Perhaps their stories will inspire you to consider opening your home to a child needing a family. For more information and to . . .

THE UNBEARABLE LIGHTNESS OF FAMILY | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM SEPTEMBER 2010.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM SEPTEMBER 2010. We saw a new staging of Peter Pan last night. It was an intense experience on many levels. I will write more about the show in a sec, since being a theater critic was my #2 career aspiration in college (#1 being a correspondent role on The Daily Show, but alas not all dreams come true). First, I feel like I should write out some of the profound adoption themes that the show brought up for me. (The mom bloggers and kids . . .

It doesn’t take much | On Thursday’s I Post From The Vault. This Post Is From September 2010.
On Thursday's I Post From The Vault. This Post Is From September 2010. We had a fun, lazy Sunday yesterday. It was a reminder how easily my kids are entertained.

Then the boys spent about an hour using the boxes as spaceships/battering rams on the trampoline. I was sure this . . .

What Other People Think of You IS Your Business: Unpacking Rachel Hollis Part 1
Yesterday I briefly mentioned some concerns I had about some of Rachel Hollis’s problematic ideologies, and so I decided to unpack some of them further. Today, I’m starting with looking at the merits and problems with an ideology that shields us from worrying about what other people think of us. I’m going to look at why this narrative is so appealing and has become so popular, why it causes problems in our relationships, why it’s antithetical to anti-racism work, and how to find a healthy . . .
