I guess I've been fortunate. I have had totally positive responses.

What really amazes me (and a lot of people know about our adoption-I talk very freely to people about what we're doing) is that I would say 2 out of 3 people that I discuss it with, know someone who has adopted from Russia! I don't know if it's the area (S. Fl) or what, but it is really true!

One kind of funny thing that some people say is "oh, that is such a wonderful, unselfish thing that you're doing" like we're making this big sacrifice by adopting an orphan! I know they don't mean anything by it, but I always say "I think we 'll be the lucky ones"!
