Missing Kim~

My sweet friend Kim @ 3 Peanuts has had to shut down her blog due to some personal harassment. Kim is such an inspiration to so many of us on this adoption journey. Kim, you will be missed so much!

I think Kim's experience has made me start to consider the idea of going private also. I have used this blog as a way to document our family life and our journey to Lucy. I don't share much personal information here for the fact that it is open to all. I have been so ecouraged by following other families blogs while we have waited for Lucy, and I hope mine has done the same for others. I might consider going private once we return with Lucy, so I will be able to share all that is happening with our family.

    It is mind blowing that people can be so mean.
