Thinking this might almost be a good idea, I amm looking into fostering. But she almost melted down in my office this afternoon when I said it certainly wouldn't happen that quickly. <br /><br />I am wondering if celebrating ahead of time would make a difference; I bet she'd try and go for two celebrations.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12623179886908222942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7916782536472572714.post-2249339598533059292009-09-30T20:23:18.831-04:002009-09-30T20:23:18.831-04:00Wow.

Their bodies just KNOW. I attribute it to something on the level of ions. <br /><br />Our anniversary season starts with one birthday build-up in October, then stretches through Halloween, to Christmas and abandonment in December, the RADish's birthday in early January, and then orphanage entry in late January followed by a series of adoption-related anniversaries in February, March and April, when we appeared on the scene, then disappeared, then uprooted them and dragged them around Ukraine for a couple weeks (what were we thinking?), then finally plunged them into a completely unfamiliar "home". No wonder they were/are traumatized. <br /><br />I love all your strategies, and am going to copy like crazy as we head into this season.<br /><br />Bravo to you and J for those facial expressions and for getting the regression down to a 1-month advance rather than 2.BThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11802465316673594087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7916782536472572714.post-72750870718817173972009-09-30T10:24:24.881-04:002009-09-30T10:24:24.881-04:00Oh you just made me realize some things too.
