Our 2nd time around with both organizations, we were well pleased. This time it was more about the child, instead of about what the mother needed in her life to get herself back together. Sometimes the phrase ” IF YOU LOVE SOMEONE, SET THEM FREE” should mean something. If a mother or father, chooses a downhill spiral, don’t take the children with you. Thank you DCF for seeing this this way this time.
We still pray for both parents!
Thanks to FFN we were able to adopt three of our children. Nicola Spears has been a great resource for us even after moving out of their area to assist us in adopting three more. Thanks for all you do.
