First Entry

Ok, so experimenting with this world of blogging. First things first, what to write about? I guess in general, Jak and I will be writing about our journey as we train for and foster kids for the first time. It will also be our first time to parent as we don't currently have any bio kids either. But I'm sure we'll also be writing about whatever's relevant in our lives right now (or probably just amusing to us really) as 30 year old adults.

So, speaking of amusing, my wife (i.e. Jak) currently gets nervous/fearful when she hears Spanish spoken. Is your wife a racist you ask? No, definitely not or our interracial marriage would feel like quite the sham. Actually, she just watched a documentary on the Argentinian government back when they were kidnapping folks and dropping them in the ocean to get rid of them. They interviewed victims' families and even an "enforcer" that was "just doing his job." Scary stuff for sure, but even sadder that my history books left this out (http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/ourdisappeared/film.html).

Testing, testing... is this thing on?
