"It's Your Family"

So, one of my precious first graders came up to me one afternoon and handed me this picture he had drawn. He said, "Mrs. Prevatte, I drew this for you. It's you and your African baby. It's your family". Needless to say it made my heart smile. Its amazing how adults have so many (many) questions, doubts, and fears about our adoption, but a six year old just takes it for what it is...a baby needs a mom and dad so Tyler and I are going to be their mom and dad. It doesn't matter what country they are coming from or the fact that their skin may look different than ours. Their just a little child who needs a family.
