“Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.”  
~Oprah Winfrey


One of the things we are very grateful for in the Portland area is the large Adoption Community! Not only have we met some incredible families, but they are ongoing opportunities and gatherings for adoptive families throughout the year. Just to name a few....

Waiting parents support groups
Toukoul Orphanage annual reunions in Portland
Ethiopian kids play groups
Amharic lessons for kids
Annual adoption agency events
and of course.....Fabulous Ethiopian restaurants

We give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way. ~Author Unknown

  1. Together we can accomplish many many good things. A successful adoption is just one of them. The outreach of the adoptive community is an accomplishment in of love, committment and understanding of the process. Portland does indeed have a wonderful community.
