As an adoptive parent, I am constantly searching for information from adoptees about the best way to handle different situations that are definitely going to come up with Lucy. We plan on talking openly with her about her adoption, but we have so little information to give her. I hate that. I wish we had more to tell her, but at this point we Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06814077683590558058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7662209762016573627.post-38197324771767101282008-03-25T06:40:00.000-05:002008-03-25T06:40:00.000-05:00Loved this post!Loved this post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7662209762016573627.post-31183334210245471352008-03-24T21:29:00.000-05:002008-03-24T21:29:00.000-05:00Nicki,I look forward to reading your post on LoTR ...Nicki,<BR/><BR/>I look forward to reading your post on LoTR (if it's not password protected)- Can't wait!

I just spent two days straight, every spare minute, crying and sobbing my way through "The girls who went away" - have you read it? My Mom was one of those girls, my MIL was one of those girls. I'm the middle of a post I'm going to throw up on LoTR about this very topic.

I think there are wonderful lessons to be learned for adoptive parents here. I know that was a different time. I am so grateful to live in a time where adoption is not a hidden thing.<BR/><BR/>I try so hard to make Zoe's birth mommy and open topic of conversation.
