Miracle Of Adoption

"In Adoption the fearful become beloved,
the scorned become adored,
the nameless become cherished,
the lonely become the laughing, and death becomes life abundant."

…on both sides of the fence!!!

Dunno who wrote this - and I added the last line - but I sure do love it, and thought you might too.

And a line from my fav. - SCC: "...when love takes you home... and says, 'You belong here'..."

In fact, I just can't not post the lyrics to SCC's 2001 song (while we were waiting for Theresa Lin) "When Love Takes You In" - get your tissues...

I know you've heard the stories
But they all sound too good to be true
You've heard about a place called home
But there doesn't seem to be one for you
So one more night you cry yourself to sleep
And drift off to a distant dream

Where love takes you in and everything changes
A miracle starts with the beat of a heart
When love takes you home and says you belong here
The loneliness ends and a new life begins
When love takes you in

And somewhere while you're sleeping
Someone else is dreaming too
Counting down the days until
They hold you close and say I love you
And like the rain that falls into the sea
In a moment what has been is lost in what will be

When love takes you in everything changes
A miracle starts with the beat of a heart
And this love will never let you go
There is nothing that could ever cause this love to lose its hold

When love takes you in everything changes
A miracle starts with the beat of a heart
When love takes you home and says you belong here
The loneliness ends and a new life begins
When love takes you in it takes you in for good
When love takes you in

Let's Roll!!
