Considering that we are adopting our daughters from a Second and a Third World country (or a Developing and an Under-Developed country), I am very interested in learning more about girls that live in poverty. And I'm open to finding ways to help them that will, in turn, help those around them.
Take a look at this very powerful video, The Girl Effect, to see what I'm taking about.
I've read Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace...One School at a Time and am currently reading Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide. Now it's time for me to act. And I think women, especially moms in America can make a huge difference. Interested in joining me?
There's another blogger who is in the process of adoption a little boy from Ethiopa. I think adoption is wonderful. My husband was adopted.
