This is a beautiful story from the Dave Thomas Foundation about throwing your adoption wish list out the window in favor of letting your heart lead the way. It’s the tale of how one teenaged boy named RD caused a woman to change her mind about adopting an older child from the foster care system, and it might inspire you. Watch this engaging story of how one child can steal your heart and change your mind about what you think you want from your journey with adoption.
