Adoption truly is an amazing thing! If you have a minute watch this…but make sure you grab a box of tissues…I just cried through the whole thing! These kids have so much strength, love and maturity for their age. Unlike, their parents!!! It makes me so happy to see positive stories of adoption in the media. So many times adoption is overlooked, and the media only shows the other 2 options (keep or abort)…which makes me so livid! I love to hear and share positive stories about adoption. Adoption has been such a huge blessing in my life. I feel so blessed to have the children I do and to have them come from such amazing birthmothers and birthfamilies. I feel humbled and honored to have been able to adopt my children. They are the most precious gifts I have been given.
adoption IS about love…

I watched that episode the other night and cried through the entire thing!!! I too, was so happy to see a good, positive adoption story in the media.
I LOVE you guys! Abby and Boston are so blessed to be with you… there’s not a better place on this earth for those kids to be.
That was so amazing. I can not stop crying. What strong kids! It’s is cool to see both sides of the story…and I can not stop crying still. Great post amanda.
amen sista! 🙂 great episode. so good to see things like this more and more in the media. what amazing birth parents, so strong, so courageous, so resolute in their efforts to give their daughter more than they could give at this time in their lives. we are so blessed to be on the positive side of the adoption story! my life too has been eternally blessed by the selflessness and love of incredible birth parents. 🙂 hope you are doing well. we gotta do a park date some time! ps- i think my good friend, janel nobles, just bought a house in your area (might be within ward boundaries). i think the family they bought the house from knows you and is a friend of yours (can’t recall her name at the moment). anyhow, small world. 🙂 take care.
