Where to start...
I guess the beginning would be the best place to start. My name is Sabrina. I am a wife, a mother, and a youth leader, among many other things. So the passion for what I have stared with this blog did not come out of "too much free time" or "boredom". Believe you me, I have plenty to keep me busy on any given day of the week.
It all started with a friend of mine. Well a couple of friends of mine, who have discussed the subject of adoption. For different reasons these friends have decided to bring a child, not their own, into their homes to feed, clothe, and raise as if they themselves had given birth to them. Why? Why should we even care? Those kids aren't mine. They are on the other side of the world! Why should it bother me what happens to them? I am safe, my kids are safe, I like my life, just the way it is. It's not my problem. Sometimes it's hard not to ask those questions or have those thoughts. But I have to be the voice here.
The voice of the one who is halfway across the world. The voice of the one who doesn't speak my language, and doesn't know the meaning of the word safe. I have to speak for the one who can't speak for herself. Yes, herself. I am speaking on the behalf of a little girl. A little girl who even if she speaks, would not be heard. Her name is Nastya and she is a little girl on the other side of the world. She lives in an orphanage. She has no "forever family" she just has the orphanage and the people there.
As I learn more about Nastya my passion for her to find her forever family grows. As the passion grows so does the aching of my heart. You see Nastya was born with spina bifida and minor hydrocephalus. (Feel free to click these links to learn more) So she is an extra special little girl. If she doesn't find her forever family soon she is certain to face a bedridden life in a mental institution where she could be easily overlooked.
I begin this blog with a challenge. I challenge you to step out of your comfort zone. I challenge you to help me. Help me find Nastya's forever family. Help me get her to her home. Thank you for your time, your patience, and your help in getting Nastya to her forever family.
Here is where you can find more information on Nastya. She is on a website called Reece's Rainbow. Here is a link. http://reecesrainbow.org/nastya-11 I will soon be posting pictures of Nastya. Thanks guys! Your help will truly make a difference.
