Nice Adoption Article

Our electricity is provided by an Electric Co-op. We get a magazine from the electric company every month that has articles on various issues and things going on around the state.

In this month's issue there is an article about adoption. Here's the link.

This Months Issue - KentuckyLiving Magazine - Kentucky Living

I wish you could see the pictures that went along with it as they are just precious. I thought it was a nice article and gave good information.

Just thought I'd share a positive article!

Kim

Kim,
Thanks so much for passing that on~~you're right, it is nice to see a positive article on adoption that is about everyday folks like all of us~~not Madonna or Angelina! Good article!
