New Edition of ‘Adoption Nation’ Released

Adoptive Parents Needed
A single mom needs to find a family for her unborn baby. Baby has spina bifida and hydro (that is all that is known at this point). Adoption fees are heavily subsidized in this instance. Baby is 20 wks. Please let me know if you hear of anyone that is willing to adopt this baby.
Please send your response to prayer(at)hannahstears.org for contact information.

Despite getting sick for almost the whole month of February, I felt like I had things more under control. continued here

Banana, Bear, and Bophie: Our Decision to Adopt Again Part 1
Banana, Bear, and Bophie: Our Decision to Adopt Again Part 1: "Orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names. They are easier to ignore before you see their faces.
