Our 15 Minutes of Fame



Well, today was an exciting day in the Keaney household. We were featured in an article by the Boston Herald - pictures, quotes, and all. We were celebs for a day. The article was written about the new restrictions the CCAA is allegedly putting on prospective adoptive parents. This saddens me. Although we would not have fallen into any of the categories listed under the new guidlines, it is upsetting that China is placing these restrictions and discriminating against people that do fall into them.

Nevertheless, our family's picture appeared on page 7 this morning and we got lots of emails and the phone rang off the hook most of the day. I have attached the link to the article under the "Links" heading on the left side of this page.

We are preparing for the holidays and we're just about ready. I never thought I'd make it. Thank goodness for online shopping and free shipping. Olivia is looking forward to a new telescope that she asked Santa for in a letter she wrote herself. He of course answered her and said she could depend on him. She is really into Christmas this year and it is very exciting listening to her ideas about it all.
