Hey Mommas!
I'm Christina AKA the sucker who raised my hand at the meeting and volunteered to get our support community going. Nice to meet you. :) I'm a mom to six boys, three bio and three adopted. Our family moved to Little Rock about a year and a half ago and I have been on the hunt for an adoption community ever since. This blog will be a hub to showcase guest posts, advertise upcoming local events, recommend adoption resources, and share all our parenting tips, tricks and failures.
Because let's face it, it takes a village right? So let's build one.
One of my favorite things to do is read adoption blogs. And so I thought we could start by sharing our favorites. If you have a blog that you love to read and especially if you have one that you author please sound off in the comments. Here are a few that I love:

Rebekah writes about open adoption, faith, infertility, and foster care among many things. She has two adopted sons and recently opened her home to a brother and sister.

Jen is a popular author and speaker. Mom to three bio kids and two adopted children from an international adoption. Her "after the airport series" was so spot on for our family. And her sense of humor is laugh out loud.

Beth is a hilarious Momma to five kids, 3 adopted and a surprise set of bio twins. She is honest about not having it all together. She blogs about family life, faith, and her messy house.

Is just what it sounds, it follows the life of a busy momma to 9 kids. With her plethora of experience she highlights trans-racial adoption, sibling adoption, special needs, and international adoption.

Cory is a local preacher whose good looks rival any hollywood actor and whose wit is stand-up worthy. Oh yeah, and he's also my husband. His blog chronicled his life as a stay at home dad to 6 boys (all under the age of 8) and his adventures with the foster care system.

The place I go to for free therapy. This is my personal blog where I work through my faith, show off my family, and let the sarcasm flow.
Ok Mommas, don't leave me hanging as the only carpenter in this village. Come build with me.
