Usually I am able to come up with words at any given time. However, I don't know what to say to you, Colleen except to say THANK YOU a million times.

Thank you very much. I could get used to that couch, and the little one. The guy is actually quite good looking, and has a lot of hair too.
Thanks, Ducky.

I love your choice of word "eloquent". If Colleen reads this, she'll definitely choke on her orange juice. Thanks very much. I will never take this baby for granted in order to earn the title bestowed upon me by you.

Quite a story. I've always been envious of people who spoke two languages let along 4 (along with dialects learned). Chi must be a very smart man. I know I like his answers. Congratulations on the birth of a grandchild, even more to be envious of.......

Julie, can you believe that, by helping other akaQA members here (since last April), I was able to help myself find my daughter? I consider myself a bit of an expert since I must have spent hundreds of hours reading up on Indiana State laws. This forum has helped me to decipher a lot of legal stuff....With regards to languages, I am probably more confused than people who speak one language but it's fun.....Thx for all your kind words, Julie.

How do I start searching for my son? He was adopted around 10 years ago, he was 10 at the time. I have no idea what his name is now.....

commented 12 years ago

Chiangmai

I'd start to compile all the information I could get my hands on. Do not think some information is irrelevant. If you son is over 21 today, he gets to make the decision as to whether or not he'd want to see you. What it boils down to also is the judge's decision to allow both parties to exchange identifying information. Reasons such as health issues can sway the judge's decision as well. How old is your son today?

commented 12 years ago

jhharlan

He'll be 22 in 2 months. Of age....

Thanks, clu. It's very interesting that akaQA has enabled to learn some internet craft to pursue some badly needed information for me to piece everything together.

Chiangmai

Thanks, bulletman, for your generous comments. I am so delighted to have a chance to be a grandpa to this baby. It has renewed my faith again, in a big way.

With regards to our "fish", there are places in Chiangmai, Thailand that produce pottery, ceramic, and celadon pieces and I know she would just go nuts if she goes over there. I would love nothing more than to show her that part of Thailand. I am a collector of celadon.
