Adoption
Not flesh of my flesh nor bone of my bone, but nonetheless my very own.

Never forget for a single minute that you weren't born under my heart but in it

Hi all,

I remember seeing the above poem in a Childrens' book about adoption ; it sums up so simply and eloquently how I feel about Jude.

Yesterday was Rachel's 4th birthday and Bill and me took Rachel and Jude to the Epiphany Glendi festival in Tarpon Springs. We walked around alittle before we decided to go to Mama's Greek restaurant to have some Gyro's. Then we walked back towards the sponge docks and on the way back saw the Budweiser Clydesdales before heading back home. It wasn't all that impressive down there. We read the events update for the day online that stated they would have 300 dancers from around the US and Canada, but when we went down there we didn't see any. All we saw was a band playing Greek music under a very large tent with about 500 empty chairs under it. I was kinda disappointed , but glad at the same time to be able to enjoy the day with the kids minus Amber though , she didn't want to come. She stayed home for nearly 4 hours reading.
