Meet "Boo"

Isn't she a cutie pie?  

Sadly, she doesn't have a family.  This little girl NEEDS A FAMILY.  I thought about not even publishing this post.  I've never advocated for a child before.  Our blog is not hugely followed, and those who follow most likely aren't planning to adopt any time soon.  And that's okay.  Maybe there's ONE of you who will be touched by this post.  If so, this post has served it's purpose.

Boo is listed with Children's House International - the adoption agency we're using.  I cannot say enough good things about this agency and our case manager, Nina.  Boo has been lovingly nicknamed "Boo" because she looks so much like the little girl in the movie Monster's Inc.  According to Nina, Boo has a mild form of Spina Bifida.  She had surgery in June to repair her back.  At 2 years old, she is pulling up, crawling, and trying to walk on her own!  She's doing SO WELL!  She does have scoliosis, and will need surgery at some point in the future.  But y'all.  Surgery is not a big deal when you look at the big picture!  Her cognitive skills are good and her CT scans were normal.  She's going to be the perfect daughter for someone out there.  It's actually hard to believe she doesn't have a family yet.  She's so sweet!

Would my friends with blogs be willing to share this post on your blog?  Who knows - you might have a reader who wants Boo!  Would my friends on Facebook and Twitter consider sharing this link?  The more we can get Boo's picture out, the more likely it is that her family will find her.  

If you might be interested in adopting Boo, you can email Nina Thompson at nina.t(at)chiadopt(dot)org.  She can answer any of your questions and send you a sweet video of Boo!  

If you might be interested in adoption in general, feel free to email me and I'll answer what questions I can.  If I don't have answers, I'll find them for you!  amybmoss(at)gmail(dot)com.  I'd love to talk with you.
