I don't have too much to blog about right now, other than the monotony of day-to-day life. So here's something a little different that we haven't done in a while...
I try to be honest on the blog, and I don't really hide anything. But still, after reading my posts, there might be questions you have. So here's your chance to ask.
Click on the comments section of this post, and ask any question you'd like. It can be about our adoptions, it can be about our family, it can be about our faith. It can be deep and thought-provoking (what led you to adopt from Ukraine?), or it can be light-hearted (what are you cooking for dinner tonight)?
Nothing is off limits. Okay, I will reserve the right to say no comment in the interest and protection of my family. But there's not much I won't answer. So fire away! I'll take the questions, combine them, and do one Q&A post.

What led you to adopt? Why Ukraine? How long did it take you from "thinking about adoption" to filling out the paperwork? Think you'll do it again? :)
How supportive was your family the first time around?
Did you ever just feel exasperated with the lack of support and enthusiasm showed by family and friends?
And yes, I want to know if you plan on adopting again as well! :)
Jennifer I love your new header with all the family pictures!
How is William and Daniel's relationship growing? I'd love to know more about the adding a sibling dynamic, since that's what we're in the process of doing right now!
Did you get any info back from your Ukrainian PI?(No need to share every detail, but curious to see if he could hunt down any info in spite of circumstances.)
Do you feel significantly more worn out as a mom of two?
How do you make time as a couple? We've found that the most challenging aspect of being parents.
You post a lot of things about down syndrome adoptions and how people should take notice - for your second child, why did you not find "special" person to adopt.

I just stopped by to visit and found this. We adopted, apparently, much older than you two. Have you seen fears in your children that make you wonder what made them afraid or how do you now deal with the fear you don't know the origins of? This question may be awkward and your circumstance may be different, having adopted younger boys, but have you considered circumcision to be necessary or important? Do you want to maintain you children's birth heritage at all? Your family is very handsome, by the way.
