Hi, I just wanted to thankyou for sharing your family with all of us. I live in Australia and my husband and I are waiting to adopt a child or children from Ethiopia. In Australia this process is very long and although we have already been in the process for over a year we expect it to take around another five years before we get the phonecall that will change our lives. Being able to see the love and happiness that you and your beautiful boys share helps us to keep focused on our goal to be a family and helps pass the time while we wait. Thanks Again L
Dear L in Australia, Thank you for your comment. Often we consider quitting blogging. But then we get comments like yours... and we think about how important the blog is to so many people beyond ourselves. I'm so deeply glad that our little blog can give you some solace and comfort during your wait. Waiting is so very, very hard. It was the hardest thing I've ever done. And our wait was nothing in length compared to what you're dealing with. Hang in there and remember: they do come home. Thanks for reading, Heather
~ PARTY OF FIVE ~ The Johnson-McCormick Family Blog
About Our Blog
The Johnson-McCormick Family Blog is a blog spot for sharing the scoop on our little family's big life! We are Heather, Braydon, Kyle, Owen, and Meera Johnson-McCormick. Kyle and Owen are twins- born May 8, 2004 in Cite Soleil, Port au Prince, Haiti- adopted January 31, 2005. We became a "Party of 5" when Meera Grace was born to us on May 28, 2008. We have a crazy, fun-filled life with 3 bambinos and 2 big careers all under 1 roof - The point of this blog is three-fold: 1) to keep friends and family posted on K, O, and M's goings on's and our life, 2) to create an historical document/journal/scrapbook of this wild ride, 3) to be out there in the blogosphere -- loud and proud -- doing what we can to support other adoptive/inter-racial families and dual-career families in their journeys. Thanks for reading and following along! As Kyle and Owen say, "It's a bumpy bumpy ride!"(in a good way!).

This is pretty cool. I mean the adoption you did. We will have a baby in few weeks, but we are also thinking about adopting one.
