However, I'm writing an email to Dateline today (from my NBC account ) asking why they don't find either an expectant Mom or a firstmom or a Mom who parented who got taken for a ride as well. Or, EVEN BETTER, a family that WORKS. I'm tired of all the SUPER SCARY ADOPTION STORIES. I wasn't going to watch last night but my Husband was vastly interested in what had happened regarding the case. (I've sucked him into the adoption world pretty good. HA!)

Jenna, what happened to that lady. I fell asleep during Wife Swap. Darn it!

NBC should have interviewed you.

Is it ok for me to post the names of those books you gave me for aparents who are considering open adoption? I think it would be benficial in general for all of us who are considering open adoption.

Thanks, heading off to get my now very long hair hacked off into a "mom's cut"!
