I just had the most amazing interview
Brenda Romanchik is the director of Open Adoption Insight and a birth mom. I’ve read her articles before (read them a lot while we waited for Madison) and they really helped me understand the value of open adoption and my responsibility as an adoptive parent.
One of the best things about being a freelancer is that when you’re writing an article on a topic that interests you, you get to speak to people that you admire. I was really nervous (but excited) about talking to her and not only did I get some great quotes, I also got to pick her brain about our relationship with J.
It was so helpful. And I feel so excited about it all again and I’m all hepped up and passionate about openness again.


Brenda Romanchick is wonderful. I’m glad you had a positive experience with her.
I’ve known Brenda for several years — she is a loving, supportive friend!
