Our October meeting was attended by parents from four families, and while the attendance was modest, the participation was great. The group included a fairly new parent who is dealing with many issues that other members could very much remember and relate to. Starting a family through adoption is intense and very much a roller coaster.
Our discussion ran the gamut of acknowledging the lows and recounting the highs. Stories of attachment, doubts, breakthroughs, coping tools, accomplishments, joys, post adoption depression, and relationship remedies kept the conversations flowing.
As always, we laughed at ourselves and with each other. Who knew Pull-ups could explode?! By evening’s end everyone present left feeling heard and energized. Job done everyone!
