Starting again

I decided I'd create a new blog. Got a few others along with Twitter, facebook, googlewave, myspace et al. Can you tell I'm a social network junkie? lol

Anyway - this blog is going to be about adoption through my eyes and my experiences of it.

I'm mother to two children through adoption and it's been an interesting and rewarding journey so far. I'll maybe start from when I got married so you can follow the whole journey. It's long, it's sometimes sad, so be prepared :) The first post about my journey is dated November 21 2009 so go back to here if you want to read from the start.

Please leave a comment even just to say Hi :)

Coincidence?

Mr7 is intrigued by death. Not so unusual I think. He began to understand his own mortality a year or two ago and it's driven in part by the deaths of my bio children. Both the kids know of them, see photos of JC around and we talk about it when they feel like it. Mr7 has asked some fairly interesting questions in his time but this morning was a curiosity.

He asked if I would grave him or burn him when he dies. I said I hoped that would be many years in the future but if he did die before me I'd cremate him. Then he asked if he would be alive in heaven with JC. It's the anniversary of JC's death tomorrow and it struck me as an unusual day for him to ask. Was it just a coincidence or are there vibes he's picked up on? He hasn't mentioned JC in ages until today. Odd isn't it...
