ADOPTION Acronyms

Here is my sweet acronym for what you need to get through ADOPTION:

Ambition
Determination
Optimism
Patience
Tolerance
Inspiration
Open Heart
Never-Ending Hope


Here is my funny acronym for what you need to get through ADOPTION:

A crap-load of money
Donuts from Rainy
Organ Donor...you’ll need a new brain for court since your old brain will be mush by this point
Psychiatrist...one that will easily prescribe some happy pills, but don’t tell Russia! Shhh!
Tequila…and lots of it!
Inability to be sensible or reasonable about anything
Open Heart Surgery...since often your heart is ripped out, and without anesthesia no less! (this is where tequila comes in)
Never-Ending Pockets...to hold the crap-load of money!
