Summer Vacation ??
Autumn chill got you down? Had to pull that fleece out of the closet last night? The thought of daylights' savings throwing you for a loop?
Start planning your summer!!!
I am so excited to announce two fantastic opportunities for adoptive families...
First, coming up in June...
Re Union '09 in Tulsa, Oklahoma (where I hear the wind comes sweeping down the plains).
I don't know what this song means, but I like it!
Then, in August, in my sweet home Chicago,
BU '09
What is a blog union like? I think Lori described it best. You are going to want to read the whole post. You may want to bring Kleenex.
I have been spending a lot of time with Lori lately, well, with her blog. I have been reading her archives for strength. She's got some to spare. She has an adoption story that includes a phrase similar to, "They told us this is the first time this has ever happened.' Her road to her Abie baby was bumpy. Her strength is inspiring.
I have also being spending time with my friend Katy. I am looking back at her waiting posts. She wasn't happy. Then I look at this post and can literally feel the joy radiating off the page.
This blog thing. WOW, crazy powerful.
Speaking of which, I was wondering if you would help me support a new blogger. I met Kat a couple of weeks ago. How shall I put this...
I feel incredibly lucky to have a supportive family. Some people don't always get the support they need from their families. Sometimes they need strangers in the internet to...uhm...how many times can I say support? I sound like a bra commercial. Just, please, go over to her blog and say "Hello, We've got your back." She is working with Gladney and she lives in my hood, and look how cute her blog banner is...
So blog on you beautiful bloggers. See you in the midwest!

Obviously Not From LA...
Three weeks ago, at the Blog Union, my friend Lauren and I were shocked and awed by the behavior of some of the young children. Lauren said,"Some kid just said,"Hello Ma'am to me." We looked closer at these rare creatures, and agreed instantly that they couldn't possibly be from Los Angeles; they were far too polite.
Well, they just met their new brother in Ethiopia.

Friday Friend or Family Feature...
The Friday Friend or Family Feature has been preempted this week by the Friday Feat of Fantastic Festivity....
Today, bloggers from all over the US will descend on the south bay area of Los Angeles.
Lifeguards are currently posting,'EXTREME CUTENESS' warnings on all of their towers.
Drew and Carey have arranged the three day extravaganza!
Check out who's coming.
Can't wait to meet everyone! I'll be the one in the huge hat, frantically borrowing # 70 spf sunblock from this woman.
For all my cyberspace pals who aren't coming, Cindy has already invited herself to Thanksgiving at my house, so why don't the rest of you come too? I can't think of a better way to thank you for all of your support.
See you then.
