Welcome


Well, welcome to my blog. This will be a hurried one, as most of my postings here probably. Hurried because I always seem to have too little time to do things I want and like. Hurried because I am always on the run, answering my phone, taking my kids to after school classes, and frankly I'm not sure what else I do, but I don't seem to have much time at all. If you are a Mum, I think you will probably know what I am talking about.

Anyway. In this blog you will find my thoughts about motherhood. I am a mother of two: a biological child, a boy, aged 14. I'll call him My Boy (MB) for the purposes of this blog. And a girl, aged 10, called My Girl (MG). She is an adopted child, born in Israel of Ethiopian origin. We got her at the age of 10 months. So you will also find here my thoughts about adoption and the challenges that arise from raising an adopted child of a different colour.

Because of my difficulties in getting pregnant, motherhood is never taken for granted.
