Thank-You

Hi there, our first adoption and following two Permanent care orders are 'open' and I for one think it is the best situation for all 'within reason'....There is a site established by: Adoptive Families of Victoria (VFAV) that you should find throgh 'Google Search'....Good luck, these kids are SO WORTH IT....Lyn
