    I love how she said, "These people chose me." Family is not always blood. Family is about who loves you for you!!

    I can't even imagine how traumatizing and saddening this is to a child. It's so sad. I really feel for them.

    Carly was and, to me, is my adopted sister. I missed her so much but today she finally got to see us. Carly if you see this, I just want you to know you will always and forever be my sister. You are beautiful and strong. Always remember you can come see us if you have a problem. I love you.

      Carly Baker this is so inspiring. So many children need love and don't ever find a familiy. I am glad that you were able to become a part of a family who loves and care for you. I would love to talk to you about your adoption because I want to adopt an older child in the future (when I am ready). If you are open to this, how can we get in touch?

    It's not insane at all that "a woman took you in" and adopted you that quickly love. That's just a mother's love. She didn't know you, but she didn't know the babies she birthed either. And let me tell you, lol. The screaming, the crying sometimes it's hard to tell the difference, lol. But both are your children and the purest joy you'll ever have. She was just doing what a mama does naturally- taking care of her baby.

    • @carlybaker6484

      Yes! She did it out of love and cannot thank her enough for changing and bettering my life and showing me endless love.
