This week marks the week that we traveled to Russia, three years ago. Can you believe that? It is hard for me to believe because we have encountered so much and everything in our lives has changed.
We don’t often talk with AJ about his adoption because it brings up memories for him that are very […]
I have read (and reread) Toddler Adoption: The Weaver’s Craft several times over the span of four years and have found that it can be both helpful and very vague.

Did you know there was a Baby Thief? Supposedly she “created” the American adoption “market”. Ugh…

I have to admit that this is my absolute favorite adoption book on the market. Borya and the Burps: An Eastern European Adoption Story could have been drawn from pictures of the three of us the day we went to meet AJ for the very first time so it holds a special place in my […]
There are literally hundreds of books on Sensory Processing Disorder now, especially now that it may be recognized as an actually “disorder” in the DSM. But, the book, Raising a Sensory Smart Child: The Definitive Handbook for Helping Your Child with Sensory Integration Issues is my favorite book about Sensory Integration because it gives practical […]

As a prospective adoptive parent I was very discouraged by the negativity in this book, by the depressing commentary from adult adoptees who did not connect […]
I have read my fair share of adoption books including some pretty controversial ones like Holding Time, one that I used the theories from sparingly.

I received my review (and GIVEAWAY) copy of Motherbridge of Love at just the right time. I was needing something to help me tell AJ’s story to him.
Rebecca Wolpinsky, an independent Barefoot Stallholder sent me the book for review…and one to […]
