Let's pray for Romania to open up for adoptions...

I was in Romania a few year back, and it's just silly that they don't allow adoptions.  There are so many children.  Our group visited one orphanage every day for a week and we were only allowed on the first floor with all of the "typical" babies (but in my opinion, it is not typical to have babies lay, without crying in a crib all day...)

Anyway, one day a friend and I secretly ventured upstairs.  There we found all of the special needs children whom we hadn't been allowed to visit.  The little children rushed to us, grabbed our legs and didn't want to let go.  They begged to be held, and didn't everything they could be entertaining to us so that we wouldn't look away from them for a minute.  I remembered there being very few staff for so many children, maybe just 2, but they were actually friendly enough.  When we left, some of the children threw themselves on the floor in tears.  It was heartbreaking.

Those poor children need a chance, they need families.  Let's start PRAYING NOW that they open their doors to international adoption.  If they would open up, so many children could be listed on Reece's Rainbow, so many children could find families!

I don't know what else to do other than that right now.

Thanks guys,
Amy

Hello!

Oh my gosh, do I even have a blog?  Hmmm...

I guess I have been busy.  I could at least stop by and share a picture of our boy, otherwise there would just be that little sonogram pic on the sidebar.  Well, since I am a slacker blogger, I will let Finley take over for now:


Hi!  I'm Finley.  This is me happy after a shower!  You can see my papa's nose in the picture, and I like him.  So I am smiling at him.  Here is me when I was just fresh from the shower in my little frog towel!  All clean!


And sometimes I just like to have no clothes! In fact, I prefer it cause that's just how I spent most of my life, and how I came into this world!  But my mom always puts clothes on me, what the heck?
 Well, that's pretty much my life these days!  I hope you enjoy all my pictures of me! I am pretty sure I should go take a nap, cause I am most the time very sleepy!

Love,
Finley
