That is very sad...it may have much to do with the two previously largest programs (china and guatemala). China has slowed down so much in wait-times and guatemala is now closed. Hopefully, people will divert to other programs even if their hearts are set on these countries....because there are just so many orphans throughout the world!
I am a Christian, wife, and mother of two boys AKA "Peat" and "Repeat" with a daugther on the way through adoption. I feel called to help orphaned and abandoned children around the world.
Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. - Psalm 82:3
Answer: Can't say that we're exciting but my life can be comical!
I decided to blog our daughter's adoption journey, but I felt that something was missing: the rest of my family! So, I'm here to brag about my beautiful boys, my handsome husband, my cuddly cats, and my 'dorable dogs (lame, I know, but I was struggling)...oh yeah, and about ME. Somedays I will be sappy and sweet, and others I will be ranting and raving. Sometimes I'll just be grateful and other days I'll be graceless. I'll try to stick with more of the former and less of the latter, I promise! Mainly, I'm here to share what being a "real" mom is all about: dishes, homework, taxi-cabbing, laundry, AND love, hugs, God, and family.

ReplyDeleteOur prayer is that families will consider "special needs" children. I can't even begin to tell people how our kids have blessed our lives...!
