If you’ve ever wondered what happens when an author mixes holiday stress, too much coffee, and an optimistic to-do list… well, here we are.

Chaos? Yep.
Cookies? Absolutely.
Festive? Getting there.

I recently had the joy of chatting on the Reading With Your Kids podcast!
We dove into my latest book, Asking Questions About My Adoption Helps Me Grow, and the journey and purpose behind this book, along with the rest of my adoption-centered series. It was a fun, lively conversation (yes… I was VERY caffeinated ), and I loved every minute of it.
Take a listen : https://www.instagram.com/p/DRlLTCNjrvJ/?igsh=MTBtam84bWtxcWw2aw==
And if you’re interested in my newest book, you can find it, along with my other books and adoption resources, at www.adoptionreads.com.

Exciting news: Asking Questions About My Adoption Helps Me Grow will be released in French, Spanish, and Italian on December 20th. Stay tuned!

16 years ago today, we tied the knot in one of Hong Kong’s most iconic and beautiful places, Kowloon Walled City Park, surrounded by the people we love. That day marked the beginning of a wonderful adventure, one that continues to fill my heart with joy.

Stepping back for a moment feels right. What happened in Tai Po is heartbreaking, and my mind keeps circling back to the people and the community living through it. Hong Kong shaped pieces of who I am, so when it hurts, I feel it too.

I’m pausing my posts for a couple of weeks, and the book release will shift to December 20.
Thank you for holding space for this pause, and for the people who need it most right now.

Hong Kong was, and in many ways still is home. Anything that touches Hong Kong touches my heart. Today, my thoughts are with Tai Po and its community.
My heart is with you, and I’m holding you close.

Adoption Awareness Month is wrapping up, and honestly, it feels like two different worlds.
Inside the adoption community, we’re growing, learning, and challenging old narratives.
Outside of it?
I’m still seeing the same outdated takes recycled like it’s a nostalgia trend.

This isn’t a call-out; it’s a reminder that awareness doesn’t fit neatly into one month.
Real understanding takes time, listening, and a willingness to update the storyline.

Just leaving this thought here.

Last July, my very first chapter book, Erin’s Journal: 6th Grade Big Project, won 3rd Place in the Firebird International Book Awards - Preteen Fiction.
I was beyond proud that a story about adoption was being celebrated in mainstream preteen fiction, not tucked into a niche category.
Erin’s voice, her humour, and yes… her sassy cat were officially award-winning!
This wasn’t just a trophy; it was proof that honest, heartfelt adoption stories belong on every bookshelf.

Erin’s Journal is now reaching even more readers with the freshly released French edition: Les pensées d’Erin.

Here’s to more laughter, courage, and kids seeing themselves in stories that truly matter!

Today, I am MAD beyond words.

Mad at the ignorance that keeps showing up, even under a documentary about children living in the harshest conditions imaginable.

Mad at the comments that say, “We should just adopt them,” as if adoption were a simple fix, a one-way ticket to happiness.
A thousand NO!!!!!
That’s not how it works.
Those of us in the adoption community know better. We’ve learned, often through tears, through listening to adoptees, through unlearning what we were told, that adoption is not a rescue mission. It’s not a fairy tale.
It’s complex.
It’s loss.
It’s identity.
It’s trauma AND love.

But outside our community, the world is still being fed black-and-white stories by media, by influencers, by “feel-good” content that turns children’s pain into moral lessons.

I’m angry because these lies hurt real people.
They silence adoptees.
They erase families.
They make us forget to ask the hardest, most important questions:
How are we still here in 2025?
And how can we change the narrative, together?

If you’re feeling this anger too, don’t scroll past it.
Sit with it.
Let it move you toward truth.

It’s never too early to start the conversation about adoption with your child.
Use simple, honest words, and keep the dialogue open.
Show your child that questions are welcome. Teach them how to ask by wondering out loud, by showing curiosity. That’s how they learn to feel confident sharing their thoughts and feelings.

My books were created to help you start those conversations.
to guide, connect, and make every talk about adoption feel natural and safe.

Adoption awareness isn’t a campaign; it’s a mindset.
It’s choosing to listen, to learn, and to stay open, even when it’s hard.
It’s how we build understanding, connection, and real change, one conversation at a time.

It’s how we build understanding, connection, and real change, one conversation at a time.

Adoption brings so many emotions, sometimes all at once.
For adoptees, birth parents, and adoptive parents, it can feel confusing to hold both joy and grief, guilt and love.
But avoiding feelings doesn’t make them go away.
Feelings and emotions are normal. When we acknowledge them, we open space for healing, honesty, and real connection.

Reading together is more than storytime — it’s a way to spark conversation, build connection, and nurture trust. 💛

My books help families talk about adoption, encourage questions, and give kids words for their feelings. Paired with a lifebook, they become tools for strengthening bonds and boosting confidence.

November invites us to listen a little closer.
Adoption Awareness Month is a reminder that understanding grows when we talk, really talk, and when we’re willing to learn from one another.

It’s about connection over correction, curiosity over assumptions,
and building bridges instead of walls.

Every perspective adds a piece to the bigger picture: adoptees, birth families, adoptive families, and everyone who cares enough to listen.

Education isn’t just knowledge; it’s empathy in action.
And that’s how communities grow stronger, together.

Proud mama moment!
There’s nothing like seeing my girls enjoy the books I wrote, inspired by them, for them. Watching them read, question, and laugh reminds me why I do this.

My hope is to help more families start the conversation about adoption, creating a safe space where kids feel free to ask, wonder, and share what’s in their hearts.

Our daughters are confident talking about their adoption because we started early, welcomed every question, and gave age-appropriate answers. There’s no secret and no taboo. They know they can trust us with their feelings.

Their safety and well-being start with us. It’s our job to educate ourselves, acknowledge them, and make them feel seen, heard, and safe. Their needs always come first. Because when children feel safe and heard, they can blossom into their fullest selves.

Today, we honour adoptee stories and the full range of their emotions; joy, grief, curiosity, and everything in between.
But let’s remember: for adoptees, feelings and questions aren’t just for one day, they’re part of every day.
Take a moment to listen, acknowledge, and show up for the adoptees in your life.
