waiting children...

There are thousands of waiting children in this world. I was emailed a list today...and they just melted my heart.
Some may never get a home because of HIV.  But HIV is totally safe for your family and children.  With the medications we have here in the U.S a child diagnoised with this disease can live a normal life span.

Please take a moment to be educated on this disease.

And for your prayer closets....

please include these sweet faces.
