I was sure when I brought in coffee that the big "poison" warning label would have warned you. Okay, I’ll be honest, I am slowly poisoning you and killing you off.

HILARIOUS. But only 20 bucks? If I fight a coyote to the death I'd want more than $20. I guess with a gun AND a knife I wouldn't have to fight it to the death. Alright, now I need a gun and a knife. Add it to my Christmas list people. Ooookay, that totally made my day. HILARIOUS. But only 20 bucks? If I fight a coyote to the death I’d want more than $20.

It's only when we think we have it all figured out that we are in trouble. I remember being pregnant with Ethan, and after the initial euphoria of finding out I was pregnant wore off, I sat there and second-guessed the whole thing for months, wondering what on earth we were doing. I was sure we had made a mistake. Once I felt him moving, though, those doubts eased. Still, it was frightening to me to have those thoughts, and yet they were honest. I still have days when I wonder what on earth I thought I was doing having children. So for the author to say you must have no doubts is ridiculous. Doubts are normal. People who say they don't doubt are probably lying. And I think that is a tremendous amount of pressure to put on an adoptive parent. No matter how it is we have the blessing of having our children, we all have these moments. Okay, I'll get off my soap box now! :) Doubt over having children and our abilities to deal with them is inevitable and never ending.

That's hilarious! Although Hannah would argue with him on that point - she totally believes all that stuff about fairies and unicorns. It's one of the things I love about her. Haha! That’s hilarious!

What are you going to be doing? I totally get what you mean - even just one change is enough to throw me for a loop, nevermind my whole life. Even something as annoying as the grocery store changing their layout can get to me during certain points in my life. Congrats on your new job! What are you going to be doing?
