"He who can reach a child's heart can reach the world's
heart." - Rudyard Kipling
There are so many ways to create a family and adoption is one of them. Tomorrow, Saturday, November 17th is National Adoption Day. According to www.nationaladoptionday.org, "Every year on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, parents, judges and
child advocates join together to do something great – create forever families. National Adoption Day is a collective effort to raise awareness of the more than 100,000 children waiting in foster care. This one-day offers communities across the country the opportunity to finalize adoptions and celebrate adoptive families."
I have not had the pleasure of attending National Adoption
Day festivities, but I have been honored to witness the finalization of an adoption. On that special day a wonderfully loving family
fulfilled their dream of adopting a 4-year-old boy who
was equally as happy to officially become a permanent part of this family.

"If a child is born and raised in a home that is loving and nurturing, where there is complete truth about who we
are, you can't give a child any greater place from which to fly." Amanda Bearse, adoptive parent(http://www.adoptionopen.com/adoptionquotes.html)
