I hear ya' on the orphans thing and am looking foward to hearing how your presentation goes. <br /><br />on the public blog, it is hard with older kids because they do value their privacy and with domestic adoption things can be even more complicated.<br /><br />I love that people like you are willing to put themselves on the line and bear such public witness by blogging about their adoptions and experiences as an adoptive family.<br /><br />It sounds like transitioning to a public blog where you protect your family's privacy more than you do in the private blog, could be a good compromise.<br /><br />(and I am sure there are more than "both" of us who read your blog)Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08444571585905989924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3699698423482386767.post-11325552033760145142009-10-19T15:08:44.557-04:002009-10-19T15:08:44.557-04:00Great pic's and posts, Joy!!
As far as going ...Great pic's and posts, Joy!!<br /><br />As far as going public, if you have things on this blog from the past posts that you'd rather not have public, but you want to reopen your blog, why not put a "final post" here which redirects to a new public blog where you can start fresh? That way you don't have to keep up both, but you also don't lose your current readers (make sure you post the public blog address!) and I know it is MUCH easier for people to follow when it's public... I use google reader to read public blogs regularly, but I rarely get to the private ones of people who aren't physically in country :( Thanks for all the wonderful pictures and updates!!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07974293935380325338noreply@blogger.com
