Adoption is such a serious subject most of the time. And typically anything going on in a search or reunion is not a laughing matter. But sometimes it helps to step back and just laugh at all we go through.
I am well-known on my other blogs as always hosting a Friday funny. Obviously I’d like to keep the trend up over here on the adoption blog too. Some things that I post are original and are things that I wrote myself, but most of the items were collected by me during my search. I’ve held onto all of these things and when I’m having a hard day, I like to just pull the stuff out and LAUGH!
So to end this long week on a happy note – it’s our last weekend before school starts for our three youngest – year-round school, yes – I’m posting a rather humorous list of the top ten things that annoy adoptees.
Never fear, I can easily add ten more things that annoy me as an adoptee, and with time I will gladly make my own list and share! Just remember, this is all in fun, and no offense need be taken!
