Jane Green
“They had always dreamed of a large family but have now realized that they would be equally blessed to have even one child.”
Jane Green, Another Piece of My Heart

“Meeting your adoptive baby is like being set up on a blind date with someone you will have to spend the next eighteen years with. You care about looks, because you desperately want to fall in love with the stranger who will be your child.”
Jana Wolff, Secret Thoughts of an Adoptive Mother
