My thoughts on New Jersey’s new adoption law | Hydrangea Reads
https://hydrangeareads.wordpress.com/2014/05/28/285
Musings on life, love and literature. My thoughts on New Jersey’s new adoption law. I am lucky to have been placed with a truly amazing family. I know that not every adoptee is so lucky. That is, perhaps, why I was uneasy when I learned of the New Jersey law. What if an adoptee is not as lucky? What if a birth parent is not what the adoptee expects? What safe guards are there to ensure that an adoptee approaches a search, not as an escape, but as a person seeking knowledge? Five Minute Friday: Choose.

Elf cosmetics Haul Video! August 10, 2015. I’ve really been feeling e.l.f. cosmetics lately – their products have sleek packaging, great formulas (most of the time), are readily available at drugstores….and Target, and best of all, they’re CHEAP. All of the products in this haul video were less than $30 combined….that’s just insane, people! Check out the video below to see what I thought about everything! Bronzer Palette in Bronze Beauty. High Definition Powder in Sheer. Quick Dry Top Coat. It’s ni...
