Great post Axlee! I found the four stages really interesting and so true.
I really like your idea of taking a "forum" break, too. I often have to do that when I get too obsessed with race issues, or adoption issues. I forget sometimes I am just their mom when I am surrounded by it all the time - and while adoption and race issues are a part of our lives, it is not the ONLY part.
