Why I Chose You: 100 Reasons Why Adopting You Made Us a Family
Gregory E. Lang
Best-selling author Gregory E. Lang captures the essence of the dynamic relationships among adoptive families. These are families with so much love to share whom are desperate to have and/or help children. From hugs and kisses, to witnessing "firsts" together, Why I Chose You depicts all of the reasons why each child is uniquely special to his or her adoptive parent(s).
For many adoptive parents, they desperately want children but are unable to have them. The adoption process provides them with a child who needs a parents' love and nurturing as much as the parents need the child. In other cases, adoptive parents see a need to provide loving homes for children who will flourish because of the affection they have to give.
More than 120,000 children are adopted each year in the United States alone. Trends continue to indicate that the number of adoptees is growing each year as the number of children in foster care continues to rise.
Raising a child is not a right, but a gift. It matters not from where the gift comes, but simply that it is received. Gone are the days in which adoption was taboo. It is reason for rejoicing, sharing, and celebrating. No guilt and no second guesses can creep into your heart once it is so completely filled to bursting with love.
It is that love that is celebrated within the pages of Why I Chose You. Gregory E. Lang has compiled dozens of reasons for adoption as well as capturing the adoration, affection, and mutual gratification that is received from both the parent and child. For there is no greater place than a home filled with love, and no greater gift than the smile of a happy and contented child who knows he or she is loved.
