MEDIA ADVISORY, May 8 /Christian Newswire/ -- As many celebrate Mother's Day, some had hoped this year would be different. Another year passed and no child calls them Mom. According to the National Center for Health Statistics over six million women in the United States have an impaired ability to have a child. Around 2.1 million married couples in America are considered infertile.
For years conception of a child escaped my husband and me. We honored our own mothers on Mother's Day but tried to ignore it for ourselves. After twelve years, we turned to adoption to fulfill our dream of becoming parents. Now as the parents of five children adopted both internationally and domestically, I celebrate Mother's Day with total fulfillment. If any woman longs to become a mother, please consider adoption sooner than later. Millions of children are orphaned worldwide, and thousands are available in the United States through foster care.
Our story is chronicled in The Heart of Adoption, available by calling 1-866-909-2665 (1-60034-710-X). The Heart of Adoption shares our walk with God through the adoption process to parenthood. Help support adoption by purchasing The Heart of Adoption for yourself and another to give to someone considering adoption. Adoption may not always be easy, but it is eternally rewarding.
