What is your connection to adoption?

Adoptive Parent, Interested in Adoption

In 100 words or less, tell us about yourself. Include at least 1 link to some adoption-related writing you've done.

I am the mom of 6 kids, 2 of which are adopted. I was also a foster parent for unattached children, and during that time came to understand the importance of bonding and attachment. I currently own a business marketing baby carriers to facilitate that process. Our goal is to put carriers into the hands of as many adoptive parents as possible, so we make sure that our costs stay low. Link is below. Also see tweetiepiebaby.ning.com

Have you thought about possibly asking the agencies to include your company info in their info packets and such for traveling? I have had a few ask for Mei Tai carrier seamstresses, so many that are aware of the necessity of bonding are looking!! Maybe even contact the Adoption Magazines to let them know you are interested in teaching bonding through wearing? Your creations are beautiful!!!

With the economy the way it is & my husband facing an inevitable lay-off, we're hoping to get straightened out & see where the good Lord leads us. How about you? Are you in the process of trying to adopt?
