Adoption Myths and Facts

So as we wait…we thought we would share some adoption myths and facts. 1.       Myth : Adoption is second-best. Fact : Adoption may be another way, but it is never second-best.   2.       Myth : Birthparents can show up at any time to “reclaim” their child. Fact : Once an adoption is finalized, it is permanent, and the adoptive parents are legally recognized as the child’s parents.   3.      Myth : Birthparents are irresponsible and don’t care about their child.

Our Journey Begins

So as some of you know and others of you don't know, Josh and I are starting the adoption process.

It may be a little crazy!

Just One! Thats all it takes to be apart of something bigger! Obviously you have learned from reading this blog that we care about the orphans in the world and our prayer is that other people will do the same. But sometimes in life it is so difficult to think that you could help or make a difference. But really you can. Do you drink a soda, tea, or coffee that cost $1? Then you could help. My husband and I started thinking and realizing that first of all people want to help but times are tough and it is difficult to help out others sometimes ecspecially in the economy we live in. Then we also thought that people know people and sometimes a ton of people. Just think about how many people you have on your facebook or that you work with. So we are trying something that is a little crazy but just might work. We are asking our friends to sacrifice one drink and send us that one dollar and then to ask their friends. The hardest part will be mailing the dollar or taking the time to do the...
