Sorry you weren't able to cover the eleven families who gave 14 children forever homes at Washtenaw County Trial Court's Adoption Day celebration today. I'm not sure why the event wasn't considered worthy of coverage by your editorial staff, in spite of our press release and reminder emails. I guess choosing families and making bonds just isn't something you're interested in? Your readers are! Check out the excellent coverage in your weekly competitor, the Legal News.
Peace,
Cynthia Bostwick

It's the fun stuff that gets overlooked sometimes. Nobody seems interested in it.
