Sunday Share

I read some amazing blogs.

Some that I agree with, Some that I don't.

But regardless their perspectives are important and valid and every week let's be honest periodically on Sunday Share, I want to point you in the direction of those blogs that I was gripped by during the week!

If you need a good "shake your head" adoption moment, you should head over to Rage Against The Minivan and watch the video posted here!  While it made me laugh, the truth is that I would hope that in the midst of the humor it brings to reality some of the insensitive things that are often chunked at transracial familes.  She also has a couple links to posts about things you can say as alternatives ;-)  Good stuff here, friends!

Next is an awesome post from One Thankful Mom about the special sleep needs of our children from hard places. This one hit me in the gut since it has been our greatest area of need since bringing Marvel home! Great thoughts!

Finally Kelly over at My Overthinking wrote a post that had me thinking all week about opportunities I might be missing in my life....Ya'll should check out The Word In Mandarin  

Over here? We're gearing up for a busy week of swim lessons, birthday parties, soccer games and a quick family trip.  Whew!!

Gripped might be an exaggeration. Unless of course, you love Downton Abbey the way you should. And if you do? Then you were so excited to see This Post over at Rage Against the Minivan this week!


Amy over at Building The Blocks wrote This Post that brought tears to my eyes. God, never let me become complacent about the things that break Your heart...

Curly Jo wrote a difficult but truthful post called Invisible Disability, Trauma, Attachment and My Pride over at Curly Jo's 2 Cents. A must read exposing the sometimes difficult world of healing our children from hard places... Check out her new posts on the topic while you're there...

Over here? We're watching the Three Stooges, putting puzzles together and baking a cake. Amen and amen. =)

My friend, Ashley, over at Expecting Miracles has touched on the beauty of her Open Adoption in this week's post titled Her "Real" Mother.  Good stuff here, folks!

Kelly at My Overthinking posted a controversial guest post-  Transracial Adoption According to a Recovering Adoptee - this week that--agree or disagree-- every adoptive parent needs to read...Because, whether we like it or not? the perspective of a transracial adult adoptee is an irreplaceable tool. This is a hard, but necessary, read.

Over here? We're napping. Nothing extraordinary.

Happy Sunday!
