Taking a quick break from my work to comment on this topic-of-the month. I worked for 5 years in a law office where the attorneys were Guardians ad Litem, appointed by the courts in cases of child neglect and abuse. Additionally, the office also did adoptions. Mainly, the adoptions were the stepparent type, where a [...]
Ok, this is a post from one of my blogs “CO Grumpy Granny” posted just before Memorial Day. It also pretty much addresses where I currently stand on the Bush impeachment issue, so I’m accompishing 2 topics with 1 post.
