I hope you'll join us this week for a conversation with Veronique. It's not often that I do interviews with adoptive parents, and maybe it's been my assumption that I know their stories already. Do you have assumptions about their stories, too?

She says that being an adoptive parent has been a dream come true for her family after trying for years to have a second child. Find out the answers to my burning questions!! www.mindyourownkarma.com/podcast
