Whatever Wednesdays

Each Wednesday we post links from the previous week that touch on special needs adoption. Our hope is that these small snapshots provide you with a glimpse of life after adopting through China’s waiting child program… both the long-term blessings and the challenges that come with parenting a child with special needs.

    Well, gosh. Thanks for including me! I appreciate the exposure. I just told Andrea @ Adoption Road, that I’m really enjoying the learning journey that this adoption has us on. It’s almost like going back to college. With out the grades to plummet my self-esteem 🙂

    I posted an initial review of the first results this week, also.
