Prayer For An Adopted Child

-Rabbi Sandy Eisenberg Sasso

Oh, this is soo beautiful! Hard to explain beauty…suffice it to say that anyone adopting a baby should take a look!

First line: We have been blessed with the precious gift of this child. Last line: Bless all of us together beneath your shelter of shalom (peace), and grant our new family, always, the harmony and love we feel today…

The Adoption Of A Broken Girl

-Julie Anderson

Love this reading. Don’t love the title.

First line: Once there were two women who never knew each other. Last line: Both, my darling, both. Just two different types of love…

Best Sex and the City memory… when Charlotte and Harry got the picture of Lily, who they adopted. This reading is like that!

First line: You first came to us in an envelope with letters, forms and such. Last line: Our child of chance, of plan, of will you’re now our very own…

-Teri Harrison

The Gift

-Author Unknown
