Thank you. I always think it is helpful for people to hear that things aren't always sunshine and rainbows with adoption. I wandered over from a.e.i.o. and I hope I'm not crossing any lines with that comment, but I really do appreciate that you shared your truth. When I brought my son home from Vietnam I expected the fairytale but got more of a fire drill and I wished that more people had been forthcoming with their real experiences.jjmhttp://thebexfiles.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1037757276730641216.post-66446327166579223152011-01-01T23:36:19.504-08:002011-01-01T23:36:19.504-08:00This post makes me so excited for Christmases to c...This post makes me so excited for Christmases to come. This year, we rejoiced in our little one really getting into opening his gifts...though we're still in the "ohhh, wrapping paper (who cares about the present)" stage. I certainly don't want to rush the time, but I very much look forward to a few years from now when we'll be in the "getting it" phase. :)Aramelle {One Wheeler's World}https://www.blogger.com/profile/02543183653921405114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1037757276730641216.post-20630732795138818922010-12-29T19:07:33.195-08:002010-12-29T19:07:33.195-08:00Aww!

This of course is counterbalanced by the 8 and 11 year olds starting to "outgrow" the magic but still playing along. :( They grow up too fast!Lorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12514992909586849215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1037757276730641216.post-30724343547283902852010-12-27T20:01:23.971-08:002010-12-27T20:01:23.971-08:00How super fun is that!
