Description

In the last episode, I admitted that I was not a good friend prior to our adoption. I did not understand the techniques I saw others using with their kids and thought I knew more and could do better. Pride comes before a fall so Jesus handed me my pride when I had SOOO many people try to “help” me parent my trauma filled children.

This week, I am sharing some things that Jennifer Alford discovered as a long term missionary in Honduras that helped her understand her adopting friends better. She watched many families go through the heartbreak of a hard adoption only to see it disrupted in the end. 

In this episode we share tips on how to be a good friend and if we think we are doing adoption wrong as a whole.

Thanks for joining us! Hope you enjoy!
