for Drake!

This is Drake, he is the featured child this month at Bringing Hope to 12. His post is HERE.

His family has found him, in his featured month!!! That is phenomenal.  I didn't even get to post about him before his family committed to him. Yes he has arthrogryposis also.
This is the link to the post announcing his family and also a post from his new mommy. Click HERE!

Igor has been adopted!


Before and After: from "Igor" to Joseph Igor Patterson.  




My very first post on this blog was last year on March 20 and I was compelled to write about "Igor".  You can go here to read my first post about adoption and Igor was the first child I advocated for.  The picture above was the only picture I had of him for two years.  Finally Igor has been adopted into a very loving family who looked at that picture and knew he was their son.  His name now is Joseph Igor Patterson.
