Adoption is my fave

June 16, 2009

I don’t normally talk about things like this on my blog but this is a million times more important to me than a pretty party or cute dress. After months of waiting, my sister and her husband have been approved for adoption! Their caseworker has explained to them that about 50% of their agency’s adoptions are designated adoptions. This is where someone they know puts them in contact with birth parents. So please, if you know a friend of a friend or a friend (or someone even closer to you) who is considering adoption, please direct them to their online profile. You can also learn more about them on their blog. I’m so excited for the two of them and know that Heavenly Father will bless them with the child that is right for their family. Thank you for your help.

    I love that you have posted about this on your blog. Adoption is a beautiful thing. My older brother is adopted and my parents were able to provide him with a wonderful life. I can't imagine mine without him!
