Madison: "Mom, you know what I think we should do? I think we should adopt an orphan. I think that would be really great."
Me: "Are you serious?"
Madison: "Ya. I think that is something we should do."
Me: "Well, um, we kind of already did that."
Madison: "Really?"
Me: "Yes. I know its hard to tell, and you may not remember, but Chase is adopted."
Madison: "Oh ya. Thats right."
So for all of you who may not know, or may have forgotten, our very cute Korean child we tote around is adopted. My husband and I don't have any Asian genes that managed to surface. I didn't have an affair with an Asian and there wasn't a strange baby mix up at the hospital.
Along with that I can safely say he didn't inherit his ability to sleep anywhere from me.

Wow, Really Lis? Thanks for being so candid and honest. I really was wondering but didn't know how to bring up the subject:^) That is hilarious. You don't suppose watcing "Annie" the other night had anything to do with that suggestion from Madison do ya?
S&S-- I think watching Annie might have had a little something to do with it.
That's high praise for the cohesiveness of your family when one sibling doesn't remember the other's adopted. I would totally take that as a compliment to my mad parenting skilz.
What an adorable picture! Smart to take your camera where ever you go so that you can capture moments like this.
Juliette-- I made Michael get me a nice little camera that I could fit in the baby bag, just for that purpose. I was tired of trying to get those funny candid shots with my cell phone camera.
