Barton's the one I worry about the most.
He's the one that is the most likely to be passed over.
He had only $100.00 in his grant account before we started. That was the least amount of any of our babes.
I'll be real honest. I passed him over.
I didn't SEE him.
Were it not for some yelling from those who have met him he would not be part of our Stew.

He is aging out this year.
If he isn't adopted then he will spend the rest of his life sitting here.
Yes that is a cage.
Yes those are men sitting inside of it.
They sit there day after day after day after day.
No we cannot save them all.
We cannot stop every single transfer.
But we can help Barton.
We can help him find a family.
We can be his voice so that he won't have to sit in that cage for the rest of his life.
Oh Please.... please...

Good Morning and God Bless you! I shared the link to the Mulligan Stew giveaway on my Facebook page this morning (Connie Snee) and I donated $10 each to the following: Baker family, Marr family, Taylor family, Barton's grant account and Bobby's grant account. Thank you for all that you do.
ReplyDelete-Connie Snee

Good news for Barton!!
ReplyDeleteAnd how is our hero Aaron doing?
Donated $10 to Taylor family, Deutsch family, and Barton. Shared on facebook!
ReplyDeleteI forgot if I commented that I shared on FB and my blog (crazy-arewethereyet.blogspot.com). I know I commented that I donated, looks like you just didn't publish it, which is fine - just wanted to make sure I wrote that last part because I'm in the hospital and on medications that keep making me fall asleep, so I very well could have forgotten.
ReplyDeleteDo you have an update on the family that was adopting two little boys...I think they were from the same institution as Aaron? One had bruises on his body and everyone was worried about abuse. I'm sorry I can't remember their names.
ReplyDeleteThey are waiting for travel dates...
