From Our Social Media: Thanksgiving and National Adoption Month

Published On - November 27, 2013

asadmin Responses from Social Media, STAR Families, Uncategorized

November is National Adoption Month. Seems fitting that it lands in the “month of thanks”. Today we celebrate both adoption and Thanksgiving. On our Facebook page we asked, “When it comes to adoption, what are you thankful for?” Here are the responses.

  • Brandy — I am thankful for that amazing support I have had from my amazing Adoption Star family and I am more then thankful for my son and his amazing parents and the unconditional love they have shown me for the last 7 years.
  • Alison — Besides the obvious (our kids!) also the unexpected family we have gained via our sons’ birth families as well as our Adoption Star family! I am so grateful for the friendships, support, love and ongoing connections for me personally as well as for our kids. Feeling very blessed.
  • Reardon National Adoption Month Banner Families

  • Anneliese — I’m thankful for the adult adoptee community that has emerged with so many strong voices to educate this generation’s adoptive parents and open arms to help our adopted children find their way as they mature. I honor all you have survived and fought for. Thank you.
  • Janell — My husband and i are thankful for the future birth mom who will allow us the beautiful blessing of being the adoptive parents of her child.
  • Mary — It means I’m even more thankful this month bc it’s allowed me to be where I am today!
