Your #2 is a very interesting site. A great idea for my grandson’s baby book.
Thanks for giving me a peek into a different kind of life. It is always good to understand and appreciation others’ perspectives.
Interesting list
Have you ever visited the Chookooloonks blog? (she’s doing a different blog right now but she originally started – I believe- when she and her husband were adopting their daughter. They did an adoption book too)

I think this is a really great list for those looking to adopt. And, #2 looks like it’d be perfect for any new arrival in a family.
Great suggestions, I’d say! http://donna-justme.blogspot.com/
