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...

...speaking to other adoptive mums about this blog and about how it makes them feel normal.  It is something we don't feel very often.  I think that we all feel most of the things I have posted, but we don't talk about them too often as we don't want to admit the weakness that we / society perceive comes with the feelings.  But we DO have the feelings, they are NOT weaknesses and they ARE normal given the circumstances
