November is National Adoption Awareness Month, a month devoted to highlighting
adoption from foster care. Adoption.Com has provided this link Adoption Month, Day - National Adoption Awareness Month, Day (Adoption Month, Day - National Adoption Awareness Month, Day) with ideas and suggestions for you and your family to use. Does your family do anything for this?

I really want to start with my family. Our family day will be Sept 10th since that is the day we were granted custody of our kiddos but it is a bitter sweet being that Sept 11th is the next day and we lost a family member that day. Our family always gathers the Saturday after Thanksgiving and that is going to be my kiddos coming out day and since it is our first gathering I think I am going to make it special somehow and Highlight not just my kids but my adoption, their adoption and how to be thankful about adoption. Thanks for the link.

My sister-in-law is the family ministries director at her VERY LARGE (1000+ people) congregation and will be doing something special for Adoption Month. We will be trekking out to attend, and I believe she will be mentioning us in her program!
