familyAfter several years of posting on Facebook, I decided to start a blog about Elisabeth, Wallace and me. I will post stories about our foreign adoption experience and our trips to Russia. I will also post stories about what happened we we returned home from Russia and our lives today. Along the way, I will bring up acronyms such as RAD and ADHD. Occasionally, I will post urgent updates about everyone’s favorite processed meat, SPAM.
