The past two years have been a series of emotional roller coasters, largely related to our adoption of Avivah. I've gone months without writing anything at all, followed by months when words poured out of me like water from a hose. Most of those words have found their way into private journals or emails, but recently I've begun sharing them in the blogosphere once again at my new blog, alisonmclennan.com.
I still write about adoption and probably always will, since that's obviously an enormous part of our lives, but I've expanded my repertoire a bit. My focus, above any one topic, is to be real, to seek truth, and to shine light into dark places. Sometimes that means blogging about adoption - the trials and the triumphs - and sometimes it means exploring issues of motherhood or marriage, social justice, or spiritual struggles and growth. Basically, I blog about whatever I'm wrestling with, and I'm always looking for honest feedback from my readers. I'd be delighted to hear where you stand on the issues I write about and glean wisdom from your stories and perspectives.
If you want to follow along and stay in touch, I'd love for you to join me at my new home base (click here to go there!)! You can subscribe via email, RSS feed, or follow me on Bloglovin. And if you haven't already, please say hi on Facebook or Twitter!
And to make things easy, here's a link to a post I recently wrote about what I've learned through adoption (so far): Stranger Things to Say
And here's another link to the video last month to commemorate our two-year anniversary of meeting Avivah: Perspective
I look forward to hearing from you around the internet! Thanks for reading!
