Insparenting

I have spent some time visiting a number of blogs that tell stories about women who cannot have children, women who are trying to have ones, and those who decide to adopt.

Then I arrived here, at Karen’s blog.

Karen (The Naked Ovary) and her husband Random are now in the last group. They decided to adopt a very cute little girl from China whom they call Maya Papaya.

It is great to see that the new mama can get along with her beautiful baby very soon, right at the first time they met.

This week must be a wonderful week for them. Last Tuesday was The Adoption Day. Congratulations to you, Karen and Random…

That’s why this Blog of the Week award goes to the three of you and your entire family… I hope this brings more happiness to your new family.

You’re right, dear… Maya Papaya is the most gorgeous baby in the entire world.

“My dad sent this email to a friend of his who has adopted two kids from Guatemala and who now lives in Hong Kong:

We haven’t even met our little Granddaughter, but we have her pictures plastered all over the wall. The other night I mentioned to E., how I already felt a very strong connection to Maya, she looked at me and said that she had the same feeling. We both agreed, that we were now entering a new phase of our lives and that someone, far away, would now be a very important part of our future. “

As you wrote in this post that Random’s eyes got a weensy bit wet, I think you are going to make everyone here sheds happy tears. I hope you don’t mind with me putting here the above quote of your dad’s email.

Thank you so much for this beautiful post…
