Matching Mondays


May is National Foster Care Month.
It is sad we even have to have foster care....but I am so glad there is a place for children who are in danger or whose parents have things to take care of so they can become a better parent.
We went into foster care hoping to adopt....now three years later that dream has come true AND we have fallen in love with fostering.  In ALL of our fostering cases the children went to a parent or went back to a parent or parents.   We have seen happy endings!!!!   Spencer's case was a little different...he was placed by his courageous Birth Mother from day one.....his story also has a happy ending...or more like a happy begining.   His Birth Mother gave him this happy begining....we are so grateful to her for her love for her baby!

Today rather than featuring a child or two I want to encourage you to see out your states heart gallery or waiting children site and see if someone touches your heart!  
I have a friend who is finalizing the adoption of her son this month and they will be heading to the Temple to be sealed as a family this coming Saturday.   My friend and her hubby found their son on Utah's waiting child site...it is an amazing story...one that I hope she will share soon.
Here is Utah's Heart Gallery.
Go here to see other state heart galleries.
If you live in Utah don't forget to come and join others who love adoption....
Run for Those Who Wait.
