O.K. Here goes. I am starting my new blog and this is my first experience writing one. I am an expert reader of blogs and all things to do with children and adoption. I have 6 kids ages 15 to 1. The first five are biological and my 6th is from Ethiopia. We adopted him at 6 months old and have had him home for 7 months. His name is Elijah Mamush. He is so beautiful and so much fun.
I have to say adoption has changed my life. Not only did my family grow but I have had my eyes opened to the great need for families to open their hearts to children around the world. I always knew I would adopt someday. We had talked of doing it after our 3rd child was born. But the kids kept coming and we were not ready until last year. Hey, maybe we are still not ready- who is ever really ready for children. They all come with their own set of challenges. You have to be a little crazy to be a mom to many =)
When I am not so tired I will post more on our decision to adopt and where we are going next! Yep, we are not done yet!
