About

By Mom2One

In 2006 our family became a multiracial family through adoption—one born in Korea and two born in American. After attending parenting class and reading lots about multiracial families, we’ve come to understand how important it is to keep the birth culture alive for interracial adoptees. This blog is dedicated to multiracial families. We’ll share our journey and what we’re continually learning, discuss how adopting interracially changes your family, and often you personally, and share with you tips and resources that have helped our family. Many of the resources we’ll share will focus on Korea, because that’s what we know best, but lots of the ideas can be adapted to any multiracial family.

    I’m so delighted to have come upon your blog. Our son was born in Vietnam in 2002, and my family has definitely struggled with all sorts of cross-cultural, multiracial issues. I will list your blog on the blogroll for Adopt-a-tude (and would appreciate if you’d do the same for us). You might also like to check out my personal blog, Martha Nichols Online: http://marthanicholsonline.blogspot.com

    P.S. I was going to move Adopt-a-tude to the wordpress platform but decided to leave it be with blogger for the time being. I’m glad you navigated your way to us.

    Greetings Mom2One,

    I found your blog through Adopt-a-tude and could relate completely upon reading your post “Joy and Sadness — the Irony of Adoption.” I adopted my daughter in 2001 from China when she was a little under 18 mos. She is nine now, and a blessing and a joy. But she struggles with her losses and sometimes painfully so. I began a blog last spring keeping our names anonymous with the goal to protect my daughter’s privacy while also sharing our story in the hopes of helping and sharing with others. There’s a lot of romance around adoption but there is loss and there are hard, hard truths for our children to process.

    I look forward to reading more of your blog.
