There are millions of children all over the world waiting for a loving home.

There are just as many infertile couples out there who would give all they have just to be parents. What is more amazing is that some of those infertile couples go on to adopt and then are blessed with a pregnancy of their own. Maybe the satisfaction of finally being a mom or dad sets in and the body relaxes enough to work properly on it's own. Who really knows, but these miracles do happen.

I know that the parents of the children left in orphanages all over the world honor one prayer. For their child to be loved and raised in a good home.

If you have ever ventured to visit some of the orphanages that exist in some of the less fortunate countries. Then you know the great need for adoptive homes.

In 2006 we are trying to get the world to realize the need for these children to be placed into adoptive homes. Many of the children are growing older and the chance for their adoption grows bleaker as they age.

Often couples are looking for babies and do not even consider the older toddlers or school age children.
When they visit these orphanages.

As with any adoption It is your choice. You are the one to choose the child. So that means it is my job and my responsibility to ask you to look at the older children and ask yourself "Will this child fit into my family also?" Do not over look the bright eyed child begging for your attentions. Older children have so much to offer our world.

If you choose International Adoption or Domestic Adoption. All I ask is that you give a tender smile and a chance of courage to the older children too.
They need the love and the attention as much as that little one who tens of thousands will seek to adopt.
You could be the only chance the older child has at a normal family life.

So keep an open mind and an open heart when considering adoption. That is all we can ask. You may be the answer to some biological moms prayer for their child to have a happy life.
