Adoption Blog and News

Welcome to our general adoption blog.  We use our blog to give updates about international adoption from Bulgaria and Poland and Waiting Child Adoption.  We also want to keep our readers updated about adoption statistics and adoption news from around the world.  Some of our blogs can also focus on the home study process or home studies for US citizens living abroad. 

 As we update our adoption blog, we feel humbled to be able to watch God’s miracles taking with His families, though our agency.  We hope that the readers will join us in prayer for our families in process.

We hope you enjoy our adoption blog!
