URGENT- 9 Year old boy needs family Immediately- Domestic adoption
There is a little boy in America who needs a new family Immediatly; as in tomorrow. No children in home who are younger/smaller or vulnerable than him. A smaller family with experience with special needs/RAD/traumatic backgrounds would be best. This is all the information I have about the child; please PM Mrs.Richards for additional information *SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY* https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=12315712&fref=nf&ref=m_notif¬if_t=group_comment_reply

Russia's Orphans Are Stuck
I know this is my advocacy blog but people NEED to know what's happening to Russian orphans.
In 2012 Russia's President Mr. Vladimir Putin signed Dima Yakovlevs bill banning Americans and some European citizens from adopting from Russia. If you don't know what this means let me briefly explain.. families will not get to bring their children home from Russia even though many of the families already met their children, spent time with their children and fell in love with them. Based on statistics from the wonderful documentary I'm linking below 30,000 Children would have been adopted by families in the banned countries in the next ten years. That's Thirty thousand children that have lost the chance to love and be loved, to belong, and to have a family. My heart just breaks, My 15 year old brain can not fathom how those Children must feel.. Some met their families and then their families left and never came back to get them.. All because of Political games... Because some people don't value others lives, they simply don't care. In a public poll seventy percent of Russians supported the bill, only fifteen percent said they'd ever consider adoption; is that not just ridiculous?! The whole situation is messed up and hundreds and thousands of Orphans are stuck.. In orphanage, in mental institutions... This is NOT okay.
There is this AMAZING documentary about the ban, I would highly suggest everybody watch it. I watched it and it was very informative and well put together! By the end of it I was in tears to say the least, but I would reccomend it to anyone and everyone!! You can buy it or rent it here ; https://vimeo.com/ondemand/childrenofthestate?autoplay=1
Please pray that a time comes in the near future that they lift this ban.. So many children are waiting and so many families are waiting to be able to bring their kids home! Also after you watch the Documentary Please share it, more people need to know the reality for Russian orphans.

Finding a family For little girl!! MY FAMILY FOUND ME
MY FAMILY FOUND ME
There is a child Countries away that needs here mamma and daddy. This little one Unfortunately spends her days in a crib, most likely with little to no interaction with others " Her description says she "tolerates" touches by adults and children playing around her. I bet she craves every tiny moment of attention she gets or just having an echo of life around her. I refuse to believe that lying in her crib, is all life has in store for her".. Is that not heartbreaking? This little girl needs her family, a family to love her and give her hugs, a family to get her the medical care she needs, a family to play dress up and have tea parties with her... It's simple, She needs her family so she can be a little girl. I don't know what the outlook on her life will be but I certainly know it's not a good one where she's at. Please see this little girl, pray for her please.

Plea for Juliana - URGENT MY FAMILY FOUND ME
This is Juliana,
She is three years old and was recently left in her home country. She had a family commit to her and after the long adoption process they traveled and met her, and once you get your child you have a 24 hour window when you can say that they aren't the right fit for there family, there needs are to much or they aren't bringing them home for whatever other reason and that's what happened to this little one.. (We aren't going to talk about her family she had because I did not know them and it's not my place to do so) unfortunately Her country has told the adoption agency that they will pull her file and deem her Unadoptable if a family does not come forward. That can happen any day now. I can tell you, this sweet girl has NO future where she is at. As a community, this little girl NEEDS us to rally for her, we need to SHOUT from the rooftops and flood the gates of heaven with prayer for Juliana.
This is what is said about her;
Juliana is a playful, happy little girl who was born in December of 2011. She was diagnosed with Down syndrome upon admission to her orphanage. During her infancy, she was slow to adapt to her
new environment in the orphanage, crying often and eating very little. With nurturing and care, her appetite and sleep improved. When her caregivers tease and tickle her, she would smile, wave her hands, and kick her feet in joy!( What a joyous little girl!!) When she was nine months old, she could turn her head to locate the direction of music and other sounds. She was able to sit independently in a chair at one year of age. Her caregivers describe her as introverted and she enjoys quietly watching her caregivers and peers. Her language skills, growth, and cognitive development are behind in comparison to peers of her same age. When her caregiver talks to her, she smiles sweetly and makes “ah ah” sounds! An update from 2014 indicates that her receptive and expressive language skills are limited to which she cannot understand words spoken to her and does not respond to verbal requests. (Which MIGHT be due to her needing ear tubes, the same thing was said about my sister and when we got her home she had tubes places and now she is hearing much better now and understands everything!)
She gets along with other children, though she seldom interacts with them. (If I couldn't hear what they where doing I probably wouldn't be playing with them either)
She is able to roll over
and sit up by herself, and grab objects for a short period of time. She is in good health and we have a video on file of her playing and smiling!
By the way everything that looks like this ( ) is written by me.
All in all she seems like such a sweet little girl and she needs her family to find her quickly, before they pull her file (which could be any day now as I said above). My heart breaks for this precious little one. PLEASE help me to spread the word about her and her story! PLEASE Donate to her if you can!! PLEASE pray for Julianna. We must not let them pull her file, We have to find her family!!

Introducing Olena! - MY FAMILY FOUND ME
My Family Found Me!! 💖
Let me introduce you to this sweet girl, Olena! Olena was born in 2013, she has "Good development level for her age. She's a Sociable and cheerful child with good appetite; she doesn’t like to be alone and even though she enjoys playing with other kids, prefers the company of an adult. She is communicative. Currently attends an early stimulation classroom showing good interaction with her peers." She sounds like such a sweet girl! Now I'm going to talk a little bit about her name she's listed as, Olena. I was lucky, I got to name this beautiful little girl, I got to pick the name she was listed as. I am grateful as I see this name so fitting for her, let me tell you the story of how she got this name.. I listed the name, I didn't know if my name would be picked for a child or not but I've always loved the name Olena, Olena is A Ukrainian name meaning "Shining Light".. I didn't know what child would be given this name or where they would be from or if my name would be picked for any child.. But it was and the instant I saw this little girl my heart melted. She is such a cutie! I'm pretty sure her name will change once she's adopted and even though this is not her birth name..it fits, I feel like it's the beginning for her, Olena "Shining Light" this little girl is going to be a light in this world, I feel like God has BIG plans for her life. Notice that it means Shining-light.. I think this sweet girl will always carry that light with her, but will it be shining? Kids in orphanages can sometime lose there spark per say ; not having everything they need. I don't know how orphanages are in her country but I do know that, even if she's at a "Nicer" orphanage.. She still missing something, her Family. Please don't let sweet Olena loose her Spark, her Shining Light. Okay so that's the story of her name, quite long I know lol. Olena seems like a sweet and smart child not to mention she's absolutely ADORABLE! Please pray with me that her family will find her soon, I've said it over and over but it's so true, "Children don't need to grow up in orphanages, they belong in families" For more information on little Olena please visit the link here : http://reecesrainbow.org/97000/olena
