  • Interview Time

    I can’t begin to tell you how many people ask me on a fairly regular basis, “So how’s that adoption thing coming along?” My usual response is usually something to the effect of, “It’s coming along. It’s a lot of rush, rush, rush… wait…. rush, rush, rush… wait…” Sadly, that is the nature of the…

  • Counting our blessings…

    So, it’s been a while since our last update… Life keeps marching on. We have turned in the second (or is this the third?) batch of paperwork for our adoption. This is the one where we had to prove we had wills, life insurance policies, etc. as well as answering all sorts of questions (pages…

  • The Further Mediocre Adventures of Us!

    The questions of, “So, where are you in this whole adoption process thing?” have been ramping up of late, and I realize it’s been a while since our last post.

  • Christmas Hijinks

    So, Friday was Dante’s birthday, and given that he just turned three, he didn’t really have that lengthy of a wish list. Pretty much the only thing he specifically asked for was to go to Isaac’s for supper. Love that kid. 😉 Anyway, as we’re packing him into the car to head back home after…

  • Updates? We don’t need no steenkin’ updates!

    So, I can’t tell you how many times people have come up to me and said, “Hey, you guys haven’t said anything on your blog about the adoption lately.” Well, actually I can tell you how many times people have come up to me and said that. It’s zero. I just don’t really want to,…

  • Jeff Says…More!

    Heya, folks– This will be the semi-official site of news updates on the Burkholder family, particularly focusing on the adoption process that we’re about to undergo. What’s that you say? “Adoption?!” Yep, the Eponymous Neaner and I are planning to increase the size of our family while not increasing the size of Neaner’s waistline. Although…
