November is National Adoption Month! Throughout the
month I'll feature famous folk who have been adopted! Today, in honor of my Fiftieth Birthday - the
most famous adoptee of all!
Born Kal-el on the planet Krypton, he was rocketed to
earth by his birth parents, Jor-el and Lara just before Krypton exploded into
radioactive rubble.
Landing on earth in the mid-western United States, his
ship was discovered by Jonathan and Martha Kent, who adopted the foundling and
named him Clark, Martha’a maiden name.
Imbued with powers and abilities far beyond those of
mortal men, Superman fights a never-ending battle for truth, justice and the
American Way against the most ruthless of villains hell-bent on their quest for
his destruction; including Lex Luthor, Brainiac, and Zak Snyder!
“Abby’s Road, the Long and Winding Road to Adoption and how
Facebook, Aquaman and Theodore Roosevelt Helped” leads a couple through their
days of infertility treatments and adoption. It is told with gentle (and
sometimes not-so-gentle) humor from the perspective of a nerdy father and his
loving and understanding wife.
Join Mike and Esther as they go through IUIs and IFVs, as
they search for an adoption agency, are selected by a birth mother, prepare
their house, prepare their family, prepare themselves and wait for their
daughter to be born a thousand miles from home.
