Seems the secret is to say I won't post and i end up posting more LOL. Found this quote which I thought was good:
Our children are not ours because they share our genes...
they are ours because we have had the audacity to envision them.
That, at the end of the day...or long sleepless night,
is how love really works.

It is saddening to hear the negative slant some are taking with international adoption due to the recent incident where a US parent sent their Russian adopted son on an airplane back to Russia without consulting their agency or anything it seems.
This woman needs to be charged or something, it is just unthinkable to treat the child like that. If she couldn't handle him(and sadly some kids do come so "damaged" that they need more care) BUT then get help...
Then there is news(old to us) that UNICEF is being called on their anti adoption stance in Haiti. GOOD STUFF. We heard months ago from a friend who went down there about how UNICEF was working against the needs of these kids. So I hope that now that it is coming more to light that they repent and change their tract!
and then there is the earthquake in China. That is a concern, but not knowing where our Julia will come from we have no idea. We do believe she has been born now and our prayer is we will see her before 2010 is done(or early 2011)...but time will tell...
Spring seems to have settled in. Managed to get the bike out and cycle in to work today. We are moving offices(in stages, complete move in a couple weeks), so lots of physical stuff today,taking a break for a snack and relax before hauling more books...
