We have 2 adopted as infants, but have always "wondered" about adopting older children. I would love to know what your family's experience has been like.
Can't wait to hear about this new one, too.

Donna Dawson,
Author of:
Vengeance (Word Alive Press-2008) You set foot on a cruise ship. You're ready for rest and relaxation after a year of high stress and tough decisions. You set sail into the Pacific Ocean eager to recharge. But suddenly, one of your fellow passengers grows ill and dies. Open the pages of Vengeance and step into murder and mystery on the high seas.

Fires of Fury (Awe-Struck e-books 2009) Katherine only wanted to be a good wife. She wasn't prepared for her husband's unfaithfulness nor his death. And she most certainly wasn't prepared for the growing feelings for OPP Officer Jason Wolfe. To be released in 2009.

As a homeschool family, we have had to learn to homeschool "Through It All." Illnesses, deaths, job losses, financial struggles, prodigal children, marital and family problems, and trying to build and now rebuild a family homeschool business have tried to take their toll on us. But "through it all, I've learned to trust in Jesus; I've learned to trust in God..." Just as our little granddaughter trusted us and held our hand throughout her short but precious life, so we trust and hold onto the hand of our Heavenly Father, through it all..... I share our struggles as well as our joys in hope that others will find encouragement to persevere through whatever life may have in store, and to know that they are not alone... ~~~Kathy~~~
