From Another Crazy Adoptive Parent

We have been so blessed by family and friends who have supported us, loved on us, served us, cared for us, gave to us, asked about us, prayed for us and cried with us through this adoption journey....that is still far from over.

I read this adoption blog today that I am posting for you to read.  It's beautifully written and although I am so thankful that I had not had any friends or family ostracize me in this crazy journey, this blog describes me in many ways.  I'm posting it so you can understand more of why I can act like a adoptive lunatic sometimes.  :)

It's mainly for the group of friends at that child's birthday party almost 2 years ago that I told in excitement about the incredible opportunity to adopt children quickly, painlessly, and ethically from the Marshall Islands.  There were plenty of children needing families and I assumed they all would have been interested.  I quickly realized from the looks I got from them that maybe I was becoming a bit unusual and hard to connect with.  Ha!
