Motherhood Later excerpted a chapter from my book A Family, Maybe about how I came to the idea of parenting, and foster / adoptive parenting in particular.
I was surprised by their chapter choice, but reading their website, and it’s a great website, full of resouces, news, and inerviews, I understood why. Moms (and Dads) Later is like a countrywide support group for parents over 35. I’d just turned 35 when we took in our first child, and my husband was a bit older. I can see how our experience could resonate with other 35+ parents. Take a look!
