Hey Lizzie,
Just stopping by. I miss you and hope your sabbatical is giving you a much needed rest. Hugs.
Yippee! Can't wait to start flipping those pages with you. xo
Hey there. I have several adoption how to books I can give you if you are interested. Not exactly what you were talking about I know but I thought you might be interested. They were given to me by a friend and are a couple of years old but available to you if you like. Email me if you would like them.

How interesting that there are adoption clubs... I am an adult adoptee, and I wonder how different things might have been if my parents (or a teenage me) attended such things!
