Alliance for Childhood!

I found this website today. Thought I would share... Look at the Twelve Key Types of Play. 

The Alliance for Childhood promotes policies and practices that support children’s healthy development, love of learning, and joy in living. Our public education campaigns bring to light both the promise and the vulnerability of childhood. We act for the sake of the children themselves and for a more just, democratic, and ecologically responsible future.

He's on HOLD!!

9/19/2012

We just found out from our adoption agency that our son is matched to us and is on hold! He is reserved for us while we get our homestudy done and send our dossier paperwork to Eastern Europe. The homestudy takes an average of 4-6 months. Once the homestudy is done and the dossier submitted then we wait for approval for our 1st trip to visit him! Overall I expect the adoption to take a year to a year and a half from now before we are able to bring him home.


So excited!!!!!!!!!
