----My sweet friend April has been trying to adopt a baby for quite some time. They were hoping to adopt from China-and it has been years and it has gone nowhere. I asked her if I could post her on my blog that they, her and wonderful husband Ben, would love to have a baby in their home. She of course consented, then posted the following to her blog, so I just am posting it here. I ask any one of you to please pass word along. So many people I know have received the beautiful blessing of a child simply from word of mouth....
"Sugar Daddy (hubby) has been asking me what I would like this Christmas. I haven't been able to give him any concrete ideas. It just happens to be one of those years. I really just want to have a nice day watching my son enjoy the magic of Christmas. Really.
However, there is one little thing that I have been pining for. Unfortunately, it isn't something that my dear husband can pick up on his way home from work.
In a way, I feel like a greedy child at Christmas. I know I am already so blessed to have the Boy. Many people out there will never be able to parent at all. So call me greedy. I'll own it. I want another one. I want another so badly at times my heart and arms feel like Jell-O. I want diapers and formula and onesies. I want fat cheeks and early morning feedings and Gerber carrot puree' stains on my white shirts.
This order may be a little tall, even for Santa. But, I'm putting it out there. I'm sending out this request to the village of friends I have here on the web. If you know of anyone who is looking to place their baby for adoption, would you please consider referring her to our little family?
And in the meantime, I'll continue to thank the good Lord everyday for the son that I have and think of ways to makes the happiest of Christmas memories with him. "
