Marital Struggles | All Over The Place

Melissa | April 28, 2010

Maybe it’s the season of life I’m entering or maybe I’m more aware or maybe marriages are being attacked more these days.  For whatever reason, Patrick and I have been thinking a lot about relationships (especially the wedded kind) lately.  I’m sure I’ll weigh in with a longer post soon eventually, but here are his [...]

“Blog aboard!”

Melissa | March 28, 2010

So my husband has officially hopped on the blogging train.  He won’t be contributing here any longer as he has been contributing to his own personal blog almost daily for about a week.  I’ve added a convenient link in our navigation bar or you can just go to www.patrickcorkum.com.
Leave him a little love as he [...]

“Fathers” Day?

Patrick | June 23, 2009

I don’t know what took me so long to realize this, but on Sunday, as we were “celebrating” Father’s Day, I came to an odd realization that I wish I had realized when I was but a wee lad. Ready for it….. wait…. wait…. ok… here it is……Father’s day is not about celebrating father dearest! [...]

So, What’s the Problem? – Part I

Patrick | April 15, 2009

Over the past year, I have learned a lot about adoption and the worldwide orphan problem. I have read articles where people claim that there is no orphan problem. They use the statistic that there are more than 2 waiting families for every child eligible for adoption in the US and that the average wait [...]

The “not-so-nice” Adoption Tax Credit

Patrick | April 14, 2009

I can’t help but look for those things that could be better in pretty much any situation. It’s a bit of a curse as I never seem to be content. However, on the other side, it’s a blessing as I usually have an idea as to how to make it better. The adoption process that [...]
