Adoption has always been a passion of ours. In 2009 we obtained our foster care licence in hopes of adopting. We have been blessed with 5 children-2 the old fashioned way, 2 through fost/adopt and one precious foster baby we have had the last 2 years. The deeper and deeper we became involved and learned about the crisis in the foster care system, the more we felt burdened to help. After hearing of infants sitting in office buildings for days on end waiting to be placed into a foster care home, we decided to help. We are a residential treatment facility for infants and babies in the foster care system.
“They deserve a voice. Not a quiet, meek, timid, and reserved voice, but a resounding and reverberating cry for justice, for unconditional love and the right to live in safety and peace. Granted, that voice may not be their own, but they deserve to have someone embrace their cause and make sure it is heard. They deserve to be valued, to know that value and have it instilled in them. They deserve to internalize the truth that they are worth fighting for." -Christine Erwin, The Middle Mom
