I spent today thinking about the ways I'm like my biological mom and wishing that we had relationship. I spent today with my adoptive thinking about how different we are. Neither one of them has any idea of the war in my head, the pain in my heart.

Not simply an event “Adoption is a lifelong process which has to be integrated in different ways at different points in the lives of birthparents and adoptive parents”. -Jeanne Warren Lindsay, Open Adoption: A Caring Option -May the Circle be unbroken, by Lynn C. Franklin.

'Brother Jeff, as a fellow United Methodist, I call upon you to repent.' Jeff Sessions branded two pastors who interrupted him as hecklers.
Back when we had a real POTUS. Sigh.

Since it's #NationalAdoptionWeek does that mean that we're cancelling #nationaladoptionmonth next month?

La Voz del Hijo 14. Poesía. #adopteestrong #adopteevoices
Not simply an event “Adoption is a lifelong process which has to be integrated in different ways at different points in the lives of birthparents and adoptive parents”. -Jeanne Warren Lindsay, Open Adoption: A Caring Option -May the Circle be unbroken, by Lynn C. Franklin.
@AdultingA I realize this is rhetorical, but I enjoy hearing myself talk about adoption. Taking a child from his family is ok because the nice white couple wanted a baby. Bringing the whole family here doesn't do shit for adopters or baby brokers. Adoption is human trafficking.
For the victim of ongoing trauma, to put down their guard and reflect and feel is to fail to see the next abusive event coming. Impossible.
'Brother Jeff, as a fellow United Methodist, I call upon you to repent.' Jeff Sessions branded two pastors who interrupted him as hecklers.
@AdultingA Because inter-country adoption (ICA) is basically human trafficking. People being forced across borders in exchange for $ and sometimes not receiving U.S. citizenship (agreeing with you here).
La Voz del Hijo 12: “Aprendí a aceptar mi nombre americano/adoptado por pura necesidad y por cuestiones legales. Pero, ¡mi nombre es FRANCO!” Pueden leer más acerca de la historia de Tony en La Voz del Hijo.
We grieve for the Americans murdered in Pittsburgh. All of us have to fight the rise of anti-Semitism and hateful rhetoric against those who look, love, or pray differently. And we have to stop making it so easy for those who want to harm the innocent to get their hands on a gun.
Ethiopia holds a special place in my heart, and I woke up to read that a woman, Sahle-Work Zewde, was just appointed president and this week the cabinet became gender balanced. What an amazing, historic event. I am so excited.
Every single refugee on the face of this earth is enclosed in this truth: “Let us, the Triune God, make man in OUR image, according to OUR likeness…so God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created them, male and female.”
How do you care for someone knit by the Lord of heaven and earth into His own likeness? With great dignity, respect, care, protection, and kindness. Always.
so Trump makes up some bullshit story about how George Soros is paying brown people to invade America and in response, one of his unhinged dimwit worshipers put a bomb in Soros' mailbox. we Jews have seen this movie before and we didn't much care for it the first time
Ron DeSantis says that Trump is a 'role model' for children because he keeps his promises I don't know about you, but I'd rather my son break a promise than allegedly assault 17 women, call people racist names & lie 4300+ times Oh, and where is that wall? Vote @AndrewGillum !
Sweet Jesus, Richard Spencer is trending... WHAT?!? He's an abusive husband??? [sarcastic gasp] Duh. Anyone who is surprised that these white supremacists are also abusive misogynists hasn't been paying attention. That Venn Diagram is a circle, y'all.

#BlackEarthRising Anyone #adopted watching this? Found this week’s episode hard when Kate found out she was Hutu not Tutsi, all the story that she had false @onbeing_adopted @JinjaGill @AdopteeReading @AdultingA @AdopteeReality @Adoptedgardene1
@AdultingA No one will ever convince me that God is not perfectly on time!! Started searching 20 years ago. If I had found my bfam any sooner than I did my reunions never would have worked out. Not a chance. I'm beyond grateful for 20 yrs of "not right now".
God works in time – for now anyway. He has designed it that way. We will crush traumatized humans if we place on them the expectation that if they did faith right they would be instantly fine.
