Did you know that November is National Adoption Month? So this weekend our family was invited to a Celebrate Adoption ice-skating party! It is an annual event put on by a local adoption agency/maternity home for families who have adopted internationally or domestically. There were families with children of all ages there, plus there were even some pregnant birthmothers who are choosing adoption for their precious babies and living at the maternity home. What a COOL event to be apart of, and what an amazing display it was of God's grace working all over the world!
Man, I can't wait until I'm old enough to ice skate and get my face painted like all the big kids!
But I got to meet & play with Sydney, who's adopted just like me! (except she's a 15 month old Virginia baby and I'm a 8 1/2 month old Texas baby!) While we played together on the floor, Mommy & Daddy had fun meeting other families and couples who have been through a similar journey as our family!
Mommy and Daddy don't just wait until November... they can't help but celebrate adoption EVERY day...
That's so cool! I'm glad you guys to to be at part of something as wonderful as that.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful miracle to get to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteMy friend Katy just talked about National Adoption month on her blog as well. I'm glad y'all have reminded me.
