Hehe…she said “wood”
I can’t believe I forgot – yesterday was my 5th anniversary here at Michelle Smiles. In case you were wondering, the traditional gift is wood. Feel free to shower me with wooden gifts.
Five years ago, I started this little blog hoping to become part of the online adoption community so that I could learn from all of you. We had decided we were going to adopt and we were pretty sure Guatemala was the place for us but WOW I was naive and stupid. I had no idea what I was getting us into. But I made some amazing friends, spent some time in an gorgeous country, become a medium sized fish (briefly) in our little adoption blogging pond – now back to tadpole status out in the mommy blogger ocean, and brought home the most amazing little girl who is starting kindergarten in a few months. Then I moved to TN, got knocked up, had a baby, and things started getting quiet here at Michelle Smiles. That’s okay. Despite the fact that I should probably hang up my blogging hat since I’m not much of a blogger, I’m too attached to my little corner of the blogosphere to give it up.
Thanks everyone for taking the ride with me.
