WHAT IT MEANS TO BE ADOPTED
Teacher Debbie Moon's first graders were discussing a picture of a family. One little boy in the picture had a different color hair than the other family members. One child suggested that he was adopted and a little girl named Jocelynn Jay said, "I know all about adoptions because I was adopted."

"What does it mean to be adopted?" asked another child.

"It means," said Jocelynn, "that you grew in your mommy's heart instead of her tummy."

I dont know anyone who is adopted, and I doubt anyone reading this is adopted but then I cant really say that's an absolute certainty. Nonetheless, I felt an urge to share this because I felt that it has so much potential, and the wisdom that the child posseses should serve as a reminder to us that every situation can be seen in a good way.
