http://bartswholenewworld.blogspot.com/2013/09/time-for-whole-new-generation.html
A Whole New World. The regular meanderings of an adoptive parent's journey which began fourteen years ago. Friday, September 06, 2013. Time for A Whole New Generation. I blogged less frequently, and finally stopped in 2011. But things have been changing for me again, and it's time to launch a new blog. My new blog will focus not on my "whole new world," but on a "whole new generation," and my continuing discovery that adoption is as critical for the next generation as for the first.

Speaking of the gift of life, I need to tell you that "we" are grandparents tonight! And a petite nose. Ringlets of soft, wavy black hair crown her glorious little face.

A Whole New World. The regular meanderings of an adoptive parent's journey which began fourteen years ago. Tuesday, November 02, 2010. I have always been interested in politics. From elementary school forward I have captivated by the political process, the personalities and the power wielded by those who create legislation. I have been a committed voter, as well, having as my goal every two years to reach the polling place before the doors open so that I can be one of the first to vote.

A Whole New World. The regular meanderings of an adoptive parent's journey which began fourteen years ago. Thursday, January 21, 2010. Tonight was Parents' Night for our two wrestlers. They are both such great competitors that it is a pleasure, even for a non-sports type like myself, to watch them compete. And tonight it was a real joy to stand with our two sons, along with other parents. Some of the boys had parents with them, some did not. I was proud to have been there. We couldn't help but pass the l...

A Whole New World: This Is Why
http://bartswholenewworld.blogspot.com/2011/04/this-is-why.html
A Whole New World. The regular meanderings of an adoptive parent's journey which began fourteen years ago. Friday, April 29, 2011. It's been a while since I've blogged. I think about it from time to time, but when I sit to type words it often seems either insignificant or repetitious or inane. Over the years of my life as an adoptive parent I have consistently asked one question, "Why was I party to adopting twelve children? We can do the repetitions about five times, and then we stop. My out=of-shap...

A Whole New World. The regular meanderings of an adoptive parent's journey which began fourteen years ago. Thursday, November 04, 2010. In the midst of the busyness I hear from our 21-year-old son who asks me for a ride home from his early morning court hearing. I agree to transport him, knowing that it will mean missing the first part of my clergy gathering (which is hosted by the congregation where I serve Christ). An hour later I receive a pleading call. Will I bail him out? Our clergy gathering begin...

A Whole New World. The regular meanderings of an adoptive parent's journey which began fourteen years ago. Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Water, in Jesus' Name. So, Claudia asks me, "Have you heard how XXXXX is doing? I said, "No." The last we had heard is that basically he was still very sick, but had no medication to take. Contrary to my reclusive character, I picked up my iPhone and texted him, asking him if he was still sick and if he had his prescription filled. That would be great." What? At 10:30 ...
