Question 1

Comment from DramaMama
Has anyone that doesn't know you asked a stupid question? What I mean is, lots of adoptive parents get questions about why you don't know what your kid likes, or if you think he wants to go back or whatever. I'm sure the people who do know you ask stupid questions, but thankfully you forgive us, right? =) The other questions I always ask people are the same. What's the best part? What's the worst part? Most interesting? Be honest...there has to be a 'worst' part! As an outsider, it's all interesting to us...but we might not get to see the hard parts. If I think of more, I'll write later...


I don't think anyone has asked me any really dumb questions. I think all of the questions I've gotten are genuine, even if they're not always exactly PC. I'm trying to think and I really can not think of any dumb questions. I like talking about our adoption, so I think everyone around us knows everything about us already. :)
Ok - best part? I think my favorite thing is seeing Andrei learn new things. When he says a new word or talks about things we did today it makes me suprised and so proud of him
Worst part. Um, being spit on. That doesn't happen anymore really. But I learned that it was my thing that pushed me over the edge. And I'm ashamed to admit my less than Christ-like behavior when it did happen. But like I said, that doesn't really happen anymore. So now I think the worst part is all my stuff being touched and gone through and upset. Don't touch my stuff! :)
Most interesting. Well, nothing is boring anymore - lol. I think the most interesting thing was actually being in Russia and experiencing life. I love travelling and seeing new things. Now we're just trying to create normal again - whatever that may be. :)

So, anyone else have questions? Ask away! Even if you think they're dumb ;)

Two related and new questions. What do you miss the most about your life BK (before kid)? How do you and Brent escape, individually and together, now that you're in the AK (after kid) era? I know you've talked about having to plan your life around Andrei, but is there something specific you miss out on? I know I miss quiet sometimes. Even when Mo's quiet, I still am not b/c quiet means trouble and I've got to get up off my butt and find him!!
