I have a sponsor child in Honduras. Everytime I get a letter or card from him (and for weeks afterward), I wish I were in a place in life where I could take him out of that orphanage and adopt him. I don't care about the cultural differences, he is such a beautiful little boy and so smart and sweet. If he wanted to come, I'd take him.

I've always wanted to adopt an older child and I know that the child I get may very well have developmental or mental issues. The child I give birth to may have those issues, though. I certainly wouldn't send him back like he's a piece of defective merchandise. There are better ways to handle that, period.
