How to Use This Blog

A Wayfarer is a person who is traveling through......life, a particular place, a circumstance, a stage of life, etc. Let's walk the road of adoption together. The journey is so much better with company!
---------------------------------
Much of this information is useful for any adoption, but this blog is designed to be a RESOURCE BLOG for ETHIOPIAN ADOPTION. I hope this blog will be helpful to you in your adoption whether you are considering, waiting or home. I started this blog when we were adopting and found there was next to nothing on the web in any orderly manner. I set about to collect information for myself and then for others. Now, there are more sites for resources, but still not much that brings it all together. I hope this blog will serve as a sort of clearing house for Ethiopian Adoption Information. Please feel free to contribute your knowledge through commenting.
---------------------------
You can search by topic in three ways. 1. Go to the "key word" tabs on top and open pages of links in those topics. 2. Use the "labels list" in the side bar or 3. use the "search bar" above the labels list. You can also browse the blog by month and year in the Posts section or in any of the above as well. The sidebar links are to sites outside of this blog. While I feel they provide good information, I can not vouch for each site with an approval rating. Use your own discernment for each. If you have more to add to the topic, please add it in the comment section of that page or post.
----------------------------------
And, please link to The Wayfarer Adoption Blog by putting my button on your blog so others can use this resource too. Please link to this blog when ever you can and whenever you re-post things (or images) you have found here. Thanks!
The solid tabs are links to my other blogs for books and family. Check them out if you are interested. Welcome to the journey!

I noticed that in the ethnic section at WalMart there are acne products for darker skin.
We use Palmer's products on the boys and love it. I am allergic to Shea Butter...... Cocoa Butter is also a wonderful product. I also use a leave in conditioner for curly hair on the hair, I like the sort that you spray on. Also the no more frizz leave in conditioners seem to do well for the boys, but sometimes there is too much residue. I don't tend to like petroleum or shea based products for hair because they attract dirt and well, boys already attract enough of that.
I bet you can find a selection in what ever store you frequent: WalMart, Target, Kmart, Kroger's, grocery store, etc....
