"May the love hidden deep inside your heart find the love waiting in your dreams. May the laughter that you find in your tomorrow wipe away the pain you find in your yesterdays."


This blog is neither pro-adoption nor anti-adoption. This is merely the story of a mother and her journey towards healing.


Augh. Go Away, Juno.

I had some Amazon bucks to spend and was looking at Choice: True Stories of Birth, Contraception, Infertility, Adoption, Single Parenthood, and Abortion since it seems as though our library is never going to get the book. (I’m impatient.) I scrolled down the page to look through the “Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought” stuff. On the last click of the scrolly box? The Juno soundtrack. Ugh. (Even though the soundtrack kind of rocks and someone writing this post may have even downloaded a song but.. still! UGH!)


Well, That’s Not Cool

I’m playing on MyHeritage. I like genealogy kind of things. Mom and I worked on ours prior to Munchkin’s birth so that she would have her maternal birth family’s history. And so, I was just playing. I started working on our family tree on the site. And now I’m righteously aggravated.

I want to add the Munchkin to my family tree. However, she is not TheHusbandManua & Jennifer’s child. She’s mine and her birth father’s. But they don’t leave room for singular children in that manner. And I’m really, really upset about it. If I had been married before, I could add a child with that person. But not just another child.

I’m really upset. It’s just a stupid computer site/program. But I’m really upset.

She’s part of my family, too. Let me add her.
