This is my first post on my first blog. Forgive me if I make many mistakes, as I really have no idea what I am doing... I have been reading other blogs for a long time, and recently started commenting on them. That in turn has inspired me to try one of my own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This blog is likely to be about my journey in adopting my foster daughter Clementine, all the struggles I faced before she came to me, and all of the wonderful things yet to come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About me: I am single, mid-thirties, struggled with infertility... I decided to stop struggling with that, and begin struggling with the foster care system. Fortunately, my experience has been a good one, and I cannot express how lucky I am to have Clementine. I have had her since she was born, and am waiting (impatiently) for an adoption date!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4590928526049260598-7007519166552896713?l=adopting-clementine.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://adopting-clementine.blogspot.com/feeds/7007519166552896713/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4590928526049260598&amp;postID=7007519166552896713' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4590928526049260598/posts/default/7007519166552896713'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4590928526049260598/posts/default/7007519166552896713'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://adopting-clementine.blogspot.com/2007/10/first-post.html' title='First Post'/><author><name>Ruby</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16053096935925177117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
