That’s great! I love it! Kids say the greatest things, especially adopted ones!

My daughter said that because we celebrate both Hanukkah and Xmas that we are a heterosexual family.

Actually I just thought of something, alternatively you can use the comic only RSS feed, and you might be able to find a program that emails you the updates =) Hope that helps. http://www.adoptedthecomic.com/category/comic/feed/ (Please not you need a feed reader to view posts, though some browsers you will be able to view the link I've given).

Hi Lisa, I’m sorry at the moment we don’t have an email notification for new (comic) posts. At the moment we only offer notifications on Facebook and Twitter. Email notifications are only for news letters, which we dont sent out that often, and is more about news rather than posts. If I add this feature in the future I’ll let you know, but unless I don’t, I’m sorry for the inconvenience.

Can we sign up to be emailed if there are new comics posted in the ‘adoption’ series?

Love this. Had this exact thing happen several time to us too. To the extend that my husbands coworkers (a group of 8 people) told me I was wrong thinking she wouldn’t naturally speak Spanish. That my daughter who we adopted at 10.5 months from Colombia would be able to teach us Spanish when she got older.

I finally gave up the conversation with them as how do you argue with a group of ignorate people?

I was often asked: “Is her father Chinese?”

We adopted our son from Vietnam when he was 19-months old. Recently, a secretary where I work remarked that his English is “coming along.” He is now 10-years-old…

definitely made me laugh. I would say most of the odd or inappropriate prying remarks I’ve fielded come at the supermarket – and yes, I was asked if my infant daughters spoke Chinese or English. We even were asked if we had to raise them buddhist….from a family member! For the record we attend church and are not buddhist, so not sure why this was even a question.
