Because of the beautiful sacrifice of my birth mother, I was given the opportunity to be raised by two incredible, loving, and hard-working parents in an emotionally and financially stable home. When raised in love and with good morals, adoption blesses the lives of all those who are involved and is a great way to fulfill God’s plan for his children to be raised by a family, for “the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal DESTINY of His children.”
