New Year New Commitments


This year I want to get more serious about sharing our journey with all of you. So I'm going to start including parts of our journey on here that I haven't talked about before and some that I've mentioned. One of those parts is going to be our journey into turning a house into our home. I have blogged about buying the house and shared photos on Instagram and Facebook but not much else on here. 


Adoption becomes such a major part of your life that everything you do is based off of that. Decisions on vacations, discussions about work schedules, and dreams of the up coming year all include that little part "what if we get placed then what is our plan". Sometimes that question feels like your jinxing yourself and other times its wishful thinking that your plans will need to change. So this year you will hear more about those moments, how they effect us, and how we stay positive during it all. (well try to stay positive) There will also be topics about when someone announces their pregnant, when someone complains about their kids and offers them to you, and those lonely nights when your home alone with our dear sweet Winnie. 

I look forward to sharing all of these things with anyone who cares to read about them. If you have no interest then your welcome to ignore me. I'm not here to get attention. I am here to help people understand a process that use to be very private and unknown. I also hope to let others know they aren't alone. I hope to welcome others to talk about their stories either as Adoptees, Birth parents, or Adoptive parents. I look forward to 2020 being a great year and hope you enjoy the journey with us.
