You know what happens after you adopt a child? If you never have, you might not. So I’ll tell you. You completely forget that you did not make, carry that child for 9 months in your belly and then deliver the beautiful soul.
This is Us
By now, everyone and their mother’s brother’s aunt’s uncle’s sister’s cousin knows of, has seen and loves that TV show, This is Us.
I am constantly identifying with the show, mostly with Rebecca.
While I don’t relate with losing a husband (and I pray for something so devastating to never happen), I do relate to being a mom of three and adopting plus raising a child of a different race.
Firsts with Us
Today is the first day of fall (amen hallelujah). It’s also Amiya’s first Gotcha Day anniversary. For Maya’s Gotcha Day anniversary post, I thought I’d share her firsts with us.
Happy Birthday, Samarah {This is Five}
Today you’re holding up one full hand, all five fingers, to denote your new age. Happy Birthday, Samarah {This is Five}.
Our NICU Babies
Our NICU babies have blossomed into big and thriving children. September is National NICU Awareness Month. I’m celebrating our own story today.
Preschool Mom
This year I’m still holding the badge of honor as a preschool mom; yesterday was Samarah and Isaiah’s first day of preschool.
