Auctions and heartaches

http://m.facebook.com/williams.a.page?id=100004329241834&_rdr#!/events/190787547720025?__user=100004329241834 This is our auction on Facebook it ends today at ^pm central and lots of items have no bids...anyway we went to see Savannah's birth family today for the first time since she was released from the hospital after her birth. We have a private facebook page that I put pictures and updates on of her but today was the first time they have seen her in person. It was great being able to share our little chunky monkey with other people who think shes as great as we do! She enjoyed being passed around and being the center of attention for two hours, shes now passed out in her crib exhausted from her big day! On a sad note I saw a friends sad news on facebook today, she has just returned home from Eastern Europe with three kiddos they adopted and are having medical issues with one, he was near death from malnutrition and has suffered horrible physical abuse and starvation where he was. It really hurts my heart thinking of all the kids over there being mistreated because they weren't born "perfect" in fact as I read her posts about him it makes me tear up, his picture from a year ago he looked healthy and happy...the pictures now are a very sad thing to see. You see he was transferred in the last year or so from the baby house to older child orphanage for special needs kids. It is not a good place, there are kids there now who are in worse shape than this boy that have a family working desperately to get to them but they need money NOW. It just hurts me, not sure what else to say but I wish everyone could see what I have seen and hear the things I have about these kids. They are kids, kids for Gods sake that just need love.
