National Adoption Month

i attempted to do this last year. 

i didn't do so well. 

so we are going to try and do it this year. 

my goal was to do a post EVERY day about adoption.
SOME form of adoption (even it was just to post a picture of bubba :-))

yeah...not so much

and i would try to do the same thing this year, but let's face it. 

i know i can't do it. haha.

you've got to know your limits right?

SO

let's come up with a new plan, shall we? my goal is to post on this blog 10 times this month about adoption. 

i should be able to accomplish this right? 

right. 

or at least, that's what i will tell myself. :) 

so, let me know, what does adoption mean to you? what questions do you have about adoption? i feel like i am pretty open about our adoption, and am willing to answer pretty much everything out there. so, feel free to ask away :) 

i will start by telling you what adoption means to me: 

AdOpTiOn: 

means that i don't have to sit alone at home while my hubby works. 

it means that i have a full time job working 24/7. (i would like to see that overtime please :)) 

means that when a little boy gets an owie, i'm the one he runs to to make it better 

it means that i get to make those better, and make him smile. 

it means that my heart melts multiple times a day because of a "tank you mommy", or a "luuuv you mommy"

its means waking up at night (sometimes multiple times) to check on a little boy when he's sick. 

adoption means i have an even larger family than most, we gained a lot of sisters, aunts, uncles, etc. 

it means that disney movies are our movies of choice. 

it means e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g.

it means that someone, somewhere saw me fit to be a mother, and gave me the absolute best gift in the world. 

it means i'm a mother. 

and i wouldn't change it for anything. 

p.s. now it's your turn: what does it mean to you? what questions do you have? feel free to email any questions to winsorphoto@gmail.com if you want to ask anonymously. :) help me advocate adoption :)
