Radio Show

I had a crazy, nerve wracking, and fun experience last week.  On Wednesday night I got an email from our social worker telling me that a radio station that their agency is sometimes on was featuring adoption the whole week.  She said that the station contacted them because they had someone back out of a program that was supposed to be devoted to international adoption and needed someone else to step in.  They asked my social worker if she knew of anyone and she thought of us.  The catch was that the program was the next day!  My immediate reaction was "ABSOLUTELY NOT" but my family talked me into accepting.  I told her to call me in the morning to tell me more.

When she first called she said her supervisor may have found someone else and I might be off the hook.  I was relieved!  Then she called me back 5 minutes later and said I was going to be on and she was going to be on with me!  At 11am I got a call and I was sent through to the studio to do a radio interview on international adoption.  I was so, so nervous!  I was shaking through the whole thing.  It was nice that they also had my social worker on speaking from that perspective so I wasn't "on" the whole time.  It was an hour long broadcast but if you have time and are interested you can here it online through this link:

When it was over I was so relieved and I am really glad that I had the opportunity to share our story!
