I am an African immigrant. Being a white parent, how do you teach/train this poor and lonely Ethiopian child to deal with the racism in the US which you never exprienced as a black person? Or, are you going to tell him just denying it? I wonder how will he face the future reality. If people really have love for kids, if they really are not selfish, they can sponsor him while he remain at his family, relatives or country people blosom. Just a tought.
This is a blog that I put together when we were waiting to get Baby J from Ethiopia. It's a funny, honest, and a real account of my life with Baby J, my husband and our wild dogs. This is also a great way for me to share my family's life with our family and friends all over the world. Enjoy your time in Baby J land!
Just one easy question.
