Saturday Classes

Today was our last class. Well, our last Saturday class. We have to make up two classes, but those will now be held on Thursdays. Today was very emotional. Maybe more than any other class. We watched video's of kids who were adopted and kids who weren't. We watched video of adoptive parents. It broke my heart. It made me wonder why everyone doesn't adopt. Why don't older couples adopt teenagers? It broke my heart. There is no doubt in my mind when we are older we will. I don't think it would be beneficial to adopt a kid who is 5-10 years younger than us. When I look at our counties website and see the available teenagers or kids and they are smiling so big for their picture. You know they want a family. Who doesn't?!! "People will ask if it's the "right" thing to do? "You know they will be 'Bad'". Just because they may act out means they don't deserve a home? And someone to love them? I think not. How would you feel if everything you know, everyone you know was stripped from your life? How would you feel if the only love you knew deserted you? How would you feel going to 5 different schools a year because you have no stability in your life?
