Right now, hundreds of children in the United States are waiting to be adopted. And tonight, the group called Adults Adopting Special Kids shone a light on the issue with a special candlelight walk in Minot. Dozens of adults and kids grabbed candles and flashlights and marched on a sidewalk along Broadway - at about the time many people were heading home. The lights they carried symbolized hope for foster children who are waiting to be adopted. One local family that has long hosted foster children has now adopted one and is close to finishing the adoption of a second. They say it's been a great thing. (Sherrell Almond, Adoptive Mother) Adopting Joseph made it all worth it and now we're in the process of adopting another foster child we have with us. (So you're sold on it?) Oh, yes! (Jim Almond, Adoptive Father)You always hear people adopting overseas. There are plenty of opportunities here and people could check this out also.
