New Favorite Fall Show!

Do you have a new favorite fall show?  "This is Us" is mine!  Initially I just wanted to see it because it had Justin Hartley, Mandy Moore, and Milo Ventimiglia in it.  And, I thought it was just a show about family similar to what "Parenthood" was previously.  It is about family, but it's also about adoption.  It's had some unique and extremely creative twists in just the first few episodes, so I'm definitely hooked!  I love it!  It's very well done, the storylines are intriguing and I do like watching Justin, Mandy and Milo.  Have you watched it?

It's one of those shows that I really can't wait another full week to watch the next episode!  I want to see the next episode tonight!  I want to see how each of their stories unfolds and how they deal with their adopted child as all the kids get older.  It will be fun to watch what many of us have probably experienced at one time or another growing up as adopted children, as well.  Especially if you have other siblings that are the birth children of your adoptive parents.  It may sound confusing or challenging to those watching that don't have any experience with adoption or for any non-adoptee, but for those of us who are adopted it makes complete sense and we can totally relate.  It just comes down to the experiences we all encounter as we get older and how those experiences shape our world views and perceptions of other people.  That's why it's important to keep learning and keep growing as we get older.  You're never too old to learn something new!

So, if you haven't watched the show yet set your DVR for next Tuesday night on NBC!  It's a great family show and you'll love it!

Blessings to you the rest of this week and may you seek out a new perspective from someone completely different from you!  You may find some understanding on a new topic, find some respect for someone else's circumstances, or just learn something completely new!  Let's all grow together!!
