What they DON'T tell you on prep groups!
This is a blog of the things we have learned as a new adoptive Mum and Dad to three children under the age of five. For 'Mum' you can read 'Dad' and 'parent'. It is also a record of some of the things no-one told us on the prep groups. Some of it is what children get up to in general and some of it is adoption-specific. Regardless, it should be an interesting read for any parent, prospective and adoptive. Feel free to add your comments, which I shall publish.

Being an adoptive Mum is...
...upon telling oldest one we were going to stay over at my parents, he said he thought he was going to have to stay there and move away from us. It wasn't until we said 'sleep-over' that he seemed to understand. Poor thing :( How long will it be before he understands the word 'forever'?
