“We’ll keep the open part of the adoption as long as it’s in the best interests of the children,” Strickland said. Well isn't that nice???? “The love is the same,” said Strickland, who has two biological children from a previous marriage. “You don’t really realize they aren’t your own.” They aren't your own??? What???

Congrats to both families!!!

Elizabeth could you try that link again, I can't get it. Thanks!

You know since we won't be going through orientation together now, the least you can do is name the baby after me.

Congrats to this family!!! The two sisters sure are lucky to have a proud big brother to help take care of them.

How wonderful!!! Grace Ann's birthmom's mom felt the same way as this grandmother did when we took placement of Grace Ann, but now after almost 5 years it looks like she maybe visiting with us when we come down before camp. I am so happy that she is finally willing to accept us and the adoption, but I am sad that it took her so long to accept the adoption. She and Grace Ann missed four years of knowing and loving each other.

Praying for this loving Mom and Dad as they help make placement plans for their sweet little girl.

Congrats to the new Mommy and Daddy! Praying for the new family family.

Praying for the sweet little angel and all who love her.
