My New Buddies

Bailey, Mikaela, Michelle, Sarah, Lydia

Last night, I hung out with four wonderful girls, all of whom were adopted from China. I hope that this small meeting will flourish into a buddy or mentor program between international adoptees.

The girls were great. They really didn't want to talk about adoption--they just wanted to hang out. I watched them do cartwheels, play speed stacks (which is fascinating by the way), and talk about what's cool in middle school. I had a blast!

Thanks to Jessica Gerard for hosting. She is an amazing resource for adoptive families in the Ozarks...and she's originally from New Zealand!

If you know anyone who needs a buddy, or who would like to be one, please leave me a message with your contact info!
