the gift of life...nothing finer..

Best Wishes to this family...I know the feelings they are going through, my husband and I adopted a baby, oh so many years ago...what a wonderful gift he still is today, and it has been 37 years!!!
we too felt like he belonged to us as soon as we laid eyes on him, our baby was only 7 weeks old. He just called us about an hour ago to check up on us, as he says...He has never disappointed us in any way, once again I told him “Thanks son for coming into our lives”, his answer...”my pleasure Mom Thank You”
when he was 3 years old, a daughter was born to us after 14 years of marriage, I think God was rewarding us, he saw us so HAPPY....

TREASURE YOUR GIFTS, THEY GROW UP SO FAST....
I’m a grateful MOM

Beautiful story! My husband and I are blessed with three beautiful children. Our sons were born in Vietnam and our daughter was born in Korea. Infertility was the greatest blessing of our lives. I feel so honored to be able to parent them.

My wife and I adopted our daughter through The Cradle in Evanston, Illinois in 1991. Life has been golden ever since.
