Friday, 5 September 2008. Celebrating adoption in Thailand. BBC news web site. Copy of article below:. International adoption has gone on for many years, and although many foreign governments are not keen on it, there is one that actually celebrates it. BBC producer Gudrun Dalibor, who adopted a Thai toddler nine years ago, has just been back to Thailand to take part in a series of events, organised by the Thai Government, for hundreds of adopted returnees and their new parents from around the world.

Big sisters and little sisters | My Sleepy Family
https://mysleepyfamily.wordpress.com/2012/06/16/big-sisters-and-little-sisters
Just another WordPress.com site. Big sisters and little sisters. June 16, 2012 in crafty. So I know a lot of sisters. It seems I know more sisters all the time! For some reason my family and many of my friends have had girl babies – and… more then one girl! Hence, all the sisters! When I was little I soooo wanted a sister – all I had was a stinky brother LOL. But now I understand that sisters can also be hard. (some sisters are stinky too! So when I saw these dolls on. Dolls I think they are gorgeous!

Just another WordPress.com site. July 21, 2012 in Our Adoption Journey. Not because of the house. Of course it is because of the adoption. If you have a look at our ticker (in the left hand corner of this blog) you will see we have just past two years of waiting. Now remember this is two years of our file being in Thailand. This is what my ticker counts. Oct 08 – make contact with State adoption services to start the processes. Dec 08 – attend adoption seminar. July 2010 – our file goes to Thailand.

https://mysleepyfamily.wordpress.com/2011/10/03/renovations-so-whats-the-plan
Just another WordPress.com site. Renovations – so what’s the plan? October 3, 2011 in Dogbot (Indai and friends). So…. maybe you are wondering what we are planning to do with our place?

The current floor plan of our house, developed by the previous owners, has left us with both some really lovely spaces AND some really odd spaces. Here is an example of a really lovely space we got when we bought the house…. So essenti...

Just another WordPress.com site. Renovations kinda suck a bit. April 15, 2012 in Renovations. Even if they are going well. You know what I mean? I don’t want to complain too much because aside from two little issues where there was a wrong door ordered (door drama) and some things not measured out right on the plans (architect fail) things have been going really smoothly. I don’t love living like this;. You can see that Indai is there – but she is only with us on the weekends😦 for the rest of the ...
