Last week, I was interviewed for an article for Newsweek online about supporters of Kate Gosselin. To the writer, I was a supporter of Kate based on my postings on my blog and I guess I am to the extent that in my opinion she has to support those eight kids and darn it, if [...]
My daughter at 3 months (all earlier photos are on film) Adoption Tale – Adopting as a Single Woman It’s been awhile since I have done a adoption post and wanted to revisit it on a ongoing basis. Today’s post recounts the day I found I was going to be a mom. It’s a long [...]

I was so excited when I heard about the Kate Gosselin book signing. Kate is the mother from Jon and Kate plus eight fame. I love the show. I know I am also in the minority but I am a big fan of hers. She really does make the show worth watching. So I trekked [...]
