My friend Andrea Shea King posted a very moving story about the child she gave up for adoption several decades ago. It is absolutely beautiful. Please read it.
I am exhausted after one heck of a long day, which ended at the Sarah Palin event in Greenville NC tonight. Actually it ended with me driving home from Greenville. I got some okay pictures at the event and will do a write up tomorrow, but right now am just too tired. Regarding the debate, I think McCain should have done more on some issues, but the townhall format made it a bit difficult. I noticed that he did bring up the "walk vs. talk" theme, but he called it "record" vs. "rhetoric." He also made a few points about Obama's liberal record. That's it for tonight.
Update: Wow. I just re-read my post from last night about what I wanted McCain to talk about and he hit on almost every point.

Lorie, I remember you from another forum you used to be on!! Your post about the adoption story caught my eye as our family has adopted too. I am sending that link to other families in our situation as I think it will mean a lot. Bless Andrea for her willingness to share her story.
Re the debate--my husband watched it and was very pleased with McCain. He did say, as you did, that the town hall format is not a good one.
I just have to wonder, though, how many people watch those things? When Palin and Biden debated, I know that was a big draw but the presidential ones--not sure.

Lorie,
Thank you for linking to this. Even as I write, I'm still sobbing.
Tomorrow I will find out what my baby's gender is. I'm at 21 weeks gestation, a little over halfway there. The thought of ever separating from my own little one just devastates me.

Oh my, what a lovely and life-affirming story! My co-worker just asked my why my face was wet.
