My next post is slated to be about adoption costs. Shh... no one wants to talk about it. But, I have never been one who waits until her opinion is asked before she gives it, so... get ready.
Oh dear, adoption costs! I know they are tremendous. Tim was at a school the other day and a woman was mentioning her daughter being adopted; I don't remember why she mentioned it. Anyway, Tim says to the lady, 'My wife and I want to adopt a baby girl from China when we're both aged 30'. The lady says, 'That's what my daughter is!' Can I mention that the woman is from WV? Hahahaha. What a bizarre exchange.
Also.. I wanted to tell you... when I come over tonight, I'd *love* to borrow 'Blue like Jazz'! Thanks. :)
standing on my soapbox, shouting to the world that adoptive families are 'natural' families too. exploring the challenges of being an anti-racist transracial adoptive parent--listening to the voices of adopted people and learning to parent in a race conscious way. balancing roles as a white woman, parent, partner, worker, and learner.
